On the Stanley Legend and the Houses of Boteleu,
FiTz-AiLWARD, Lathom, and Stanley, &c.
— " a most anclent and distinguished bearing — the Eagle and Ciiild."
VVaverley, iii. 349.
It is generally known that the ancient ancl chivalrous house of
Stanley, branching from the Aldithleys, assumed its local narae
from the Staffordshire manor of Stanley, and that, on a subse-
quent acquisition of the Forestership of Wirral in Cheshire, it
adopted the allusive arms so often triumphant in the tournament
and the battle-field — " the buck's heads on a bend Azure." To
these arms, however, at the close of ihe fourteenth century, the
junior, but most distinguished branch, Stanley of Lathom
AND Knowsley, added, instead of their former bearing, the crest
of Me eagle and cradled infant — being i\\e previous cognizance of
the Lathoms, to whose estates they succeeded by marriage, and
whose descent is now first illustrated from records.
The first known male ancestor of this house is Henry,* father
of Robert lord of Lathom, the latter of whom founded Burs-
cough priory in Lancashire, " pro anima Henrici R. junioris et
pro anima Johannis Comitis de Mortune," most probably during
Richard's crusade, and certainly between 1173 (the date given
to John's pi-ior dignity) and 1199, that of his accession. But
trudition has assigne<l a more remote origin, the said Robert
being stated •» to be a supposed descendant from Orm, and
*■ Uoless he was the same with Henry Fitz-Siward, ^antee in Flixton (Testa de
N.) from AJbert de Gredle, the advowson of which place Robert Fitz- Henrj gare
to Borscoagh.
** Baine8's Lancashire, toI. ir. 235.

•i ON THE STANLEY LEGEND
"credible tradition" to describe the said Orm as " the Saxon pro-
piietor of Halton, who, driven from his possessions in Cheshire,
established himself in Lancashire, and by his marriage with
Alice the daughter of Herveus (a Norman nobleman, ancestor
of Tiieobald Walter) obtained large estates in this county," and
" was no doubt the founder of the church which, with his own
name, constitutes that of the parish" of Ormskirk. (Baines,
Lanc. iv. 235.)
Records partly confirm and partly contradict this. In con-
firmation, Domesday proves the ejectment of Orme, the Saxon
Lord of rieletune,c and the Testa de Neville states the marriage
of Onnus Magnus with Ahz dauffhter of Herveus.^ It is clear
to every heraldic eye that the arms of Boteler are the basis of
those of Lathom,^ with a difference not more than an early filial
one ; and it is certain from tlie Testa de Neville that the La-
thoms were the heirs of Orme Fitz-Ailward as to a knight's fee
ndjacent to Ormeskirk ; ^ the said Orme and Ailward occurring
precisely, as to time, in the space between Ormus Magnus their
probable ancestor and Ilobert Fitz-Henry otherwise de Lathom.
But in order to connect Fitz-Ailward, his probable Saxon
ancestors, and their traditional lands with the Lathoms, it is ne-
cessary, first, to vary from an important Lancashire pedigree 8
(that of the knightly family of Ashton of Ashton-under-Line),
and then to support the tradition by arguments dravvn from
* Isdem Willielmus (filius Nigelli) tenet Heletune. Orrne tenuit, &c.
"* So Brydge8(Peerage, ix. 58.) and others, except the T. de N. as printedby the
Record Commission, which gives Ornifr*. most probably from a misread contrac-
tion, " Theobaldus Walter tenet, &c. — et inde Herveus pat' Hervei Walf dedit
Ornifr'. Magn' cum filia sua Aliz in maritag' iiij car' terre in Rontheclive, &c.
p' servic' militare." p. 403, col. 2. According to dates this Orme would rather
be the successor of the Saxon, than the ejected himself.
• Gregson (Fragments, I. 2*, and IL 243.) remarks the resemblance and con-
jectures somc connexion, but honestly confesses himself unable to trace it.
' As may be seen by collating these extracts, which identify the eatate and tenare
of Fitz-Ailward and the Lathoms :

AND FAMIKV OV LATHOM, &C. S
other efitates and other lineage than those of the ejected Saxon,
Orme of Halton, lo which il refers, namely, by arguments drawn
from the said knight's fee, adjacent to Ormskirk, in Dalton, Far-
bold, and Wrightington, which is said to have descended to
Emma wife of Fitz-Ailward, through her father, the Baron of
Manchester, from Albert de Greslet, who obtained the sanie in
exchange for lands granted to him at the Conquest, h and which
passing in marriage with Emma (as by extracts from the Testa
de Neville annexed) to Orme Fitz-Ailward her husband, de-
scended (according to the same evidence) to the Lathoms as his
heirs. » And it is most probable that this Norman inheritance
passed by marriage of Fitz-Ai]ward's heiress to Robert de La-
thom, the founder of Bui*scough, together with the representa-
tion in land and blood of the earlier Orme, the subject of the Ira-
dition, as the church of Ormskirk (the Saxon's reputed founda-
lion) formed part of Robert de Lathom's endowment, and the
adjacent Norman fee is ciearly traceable from Fitz-Ailward to
tiie Lathoms, Robert*s heirs, and described as heirs of Fitz-
Aiiward also, about the close of the thirteenth century.
The argument is as follows: Robert de Lalhom, about 1180,
founds Burscough, being patron of Ormskirk by traditional de-
scent from Orme the Saxon, Lord of Lathom &,c. in that
parish; and about 1307 his representative and namesake occurs
as hereditary owner of the fee of Orme Fitz-Ailward adjacent
to Ormskirk. There is no reason to suppose that these estates
came from different sources, and as dates wiil not allow Robert's
father to be son of Fitz-Ailward, it is most likely that the estates
in question came to him (Robert) by marriage. Both occur as
hereditary possessions of his great-grandson, and neither were
acquired by his grandsoiCs marriage with Alfreton ; and of the
two persons left for consideration, dates and the assumption of
the local surname point to the founder, Robert de Lathom, ra-
ther than his son Richard, as the husband of Fitz-Ailward's
^ It appears from Domesday that Albert Greslet and Roger de Bnsli bad a joint
grant of Blackbumshire ; which was afterwards partitioned, Greslet (ancestor of
the Barons of Manchester) receiving, in exchange for part of his grant, a portioti
of Leyland hundred, andthe manorsof Adlington, Duxbary, Brindle, Worthington,
and Coppul, and a knighVa fee in Dalton, Wrightingtun, and Parbold. Whatton

iieiress. The connection thus supported is indicated by dotted
lines in the foliowing pedigree, and its complete proof would at
once esiahlish this douhle descent of Norman and Saxon pro-
perty, confirm the Lancashire tradition as to descent of blood,
and shew connexion with the Botelers, whose arms the Lathoms
adopted, appearing to have adopted them as arms of affection
for their greater kindred, at the very time wlien tlie connexion
witli Fiiz-Ailward took place. Robert de Lathom cannot be
supposed to have inherited such from liis father, for Engiish
Royalty itself was only then commencing the use of armorial
distinctions ; but Burscough Priory testified to the bearing of the
son, by giving his arms as the ensign of their liouse, and the Tar-
bocks, who branched from Richard Fitz-Henry his brother^
adopted the same witii another difference, though apparently at
a mucli hiter period.k
Tliis wili be more clearly explained by the annexed pedigree,
conibining the evidence i-elating to tlie early Lathoms and their
baronial predecessors with that which illustrates tlie continua-
tion of descent to the time when the representation of the direct
line merged in Stanley.
To the generation immediately preceding this union tradition
refers the Stanley Legend; but the latter part of the same
pedigree, witli the documents subjoined, will most completely
remove from such rera the possibility of the alleged events on
which the romantic tale is stated to be founded.
The tradition (as given by Bp. Stanley in his " Historicall
Poem touching y^ Family of Stanley,"') agreeing with Vin-
^ This adoption by Tarbock must also be considered as arms of aifection in some
degree, as they were not of the blood of the fumily whoae arms their own elder
line (viz. the Lathoms) adopted, but they would most probably takc the arms used
by their chief at the time of their separation, ratlier than any that might have been
introduced subsequently, which is an argument in favour of the connexion with
Fitz-Ailward taking place in the generation here supposed. Tarbo<:k was of the
fee of Knowsley, which the Lathoms did not acquire until several descents after,
nnd until such acquisition the correspondence in arms could not be founded on
tenure by theTarbocks from thcir own elder Une.

him son of the^r«/ Lord Monteagle, and, tf lo, he was brothcr of his namesake.
ANU FA.MILY OF LATHOM, &C 5
cent*s MS. Collections in tlie College of Arnis, de«cribes tlie
Lord of Lathom as issueless and aged " fowerscore " adopting
an infant " swaddled and clad in a mantle of redd," which an
eagle brings unhurt to her nest in Terlestowe wood, and which
he names Oskell, and makes heir of Lathom, where he becomes
the father of Isabel Slanley, stoien away in the first instance by
her knight, and afterwards forgiven by Sir Oskell. ™
In Seacome^s History of the House of Stanley is given an-
other version, supplied by represcntatives of the Lathoms of
Irlam in Lancashire and Hawthorne in Cheshire, descended,
according to their own tradition, from the legendary foundling;
tlie tradition stating as follows :
That Sir Tiiomas de Latliom, son of Sir llobert (one descent
being omitted) in the reign of Edward HL had Isabella by his
Lady, and an illegitimate son by an intrigue; and that the son
was introduced to his wife's notice, as found under a tree near
the eagle's aery, and in the first instance adopted under the nanie
of Sir Oskatel, but discarded before the death of Sir Tiiomas,
Irlam and Urmston in Lancashire, and Hawriiorne in Cheshire,
being settled on him and his heirs, and the rest of the Latliom
estate duly descending to Isabel Lady Stanley. That on such
adoption Sir Thomas had assumed for his crest " an JSagle upon
wing, turning her head back, and looking in a sprightly maimer
as for something she had lost,'' and that on tiie disowning, the
Stanleys, " eitlier to distinguish or aggrandise themselves, or in
Thoma» the second Lord, Anthony Wood says, " a Cadet of the Earls of Derby,"
and with lest cauiion praises him as " a tolerable poet of his time." His best
Fpecimen is the character of James Stanley, Bishop of Ely ; but the work is a very
extraordinary one. Beatson (i. 249.) states this Thomas Stanley to have been Bp.
of Man in 1510, afterwards deprived, restored 1556', and dead in 1558. The last
date is incorrect, as in 2 Eliz. 1559-60, he sued the corporation of Wigan respect-
ing Courts there, as " Bishop of Man and the Owt Isles and Parson ot Wigan : "
and ander the same designation, in 1 1 Eliz. sued William Gerrard respecting tithes
of Ince and Hindelay. (Ducat. Lanc. vol. ii.) Baines gives his presentation to
Wigan rectory Aug. 9, 1558.
In the History of Birds, by Edward Stenley, Rector of Alderley (now Bishop
of Norwich) Tol. i. 119, willbe found some interesting anecdotes of asportation
of infants by eagles, illustrative of the family crest, and the corresponding story of
King Alfred and the Eagle's Narsling, " Nestingum."
■ The Legend, as thus told, is represented by fine oaken carvings in the Warden'»
8tall at Manchester, put up by the before-mentioned .Tames Stanley, Bishop of
Ely. In the foreground is the ancient gate-house of Lathom Hall, which has
been incorporated wilh the restoration of that celebrated boilding engraved in
Roby's Traditions of Lancashirc.
6 ON THE STANLEY LEGEND
coiUempt and derision, took upon them the Eagle and Child,"
thus manitestinj; the variation and the reason of it. °
The possibility ofLathum of lrlam's descent from Lady StJin-
l€y*s legitimate brother is noticed subsequently; but stripped of
its marvellous drcss, Seacome's story has three points: l. An
opposition of illegitimate male coliaterals to Lady Stanley's
succession: 2. the assumption of the Eagle crest by ihefather
of the heiress : and 3. the subsequent adoption of the Stanley
cvest from niotivescf contemptand derision. The older story of
the " Historicall Poem," which only generaily involves the
adoption of an illegitimate representative, as a wondrous found-
ling, under alleged failure of issue, will be disproved by the same
arguments as the points here mentioned.
I. In TiiE NOTK subjoined» are given the results of a recent
search into records at the Duchy office, which prove that Sir
Thomas Lalhom (the Oskell of the Historical Poem), son of
Thomas de Lathom and father of Isabella Stanley, was succeeded
by a son^ Thomas (the SirOskatel of the tradition of the Irlam
family) who enjoyed indisputably Knowsley and Childwall at
least, with other manors, and at his death, in 1383, left an infunt
heiress Elena, whose claims were opposed by virtue of an alleged
entail, by Isabel wife of Sir John Stanley, who entered irregu-
larly on Lathom, John of Ghent Duke of Lancaster (and as
such, suj)erior lord of Lathom) steadily opposing him. It fur-
ther appears that the question was litigated as late as 1386; when
it appears to turn in favour of Stanley, and he was in undoubted
possession of Laihom and Knowsley and their dependencies be-
fore 9 Hen. IV. 1407-8. At this last period Stanley wjis the
favourite of the Lancastrian Court, and Steward of the House-
hold, and had served as Lieutenant of Ireland, and succeeded
ihe Percies in their forfeited Royalty of Man : but it is fair to
" Mr. liaines (Lanc. iv. 24R.) quotes anothcr modern rersion of the story
(apparently founded on a paraphrase of the Metrical History {Cole's MSS. voL
39.) and erroneously substituting Lathom of Astbury, for Lathom of Irlam,)
and properly opposcs to its assigned aera the arms in Astbury yrindows,j and
on Sir Thomas Lathom's scal (History of Cheshire, vol. iii. p. 14, 20.) aa proofs
of earlier usage ; but thc iiiscription " (3skcll Lathum " in other glass at Northcn-
(leu, (ibid. iii. 31M.) also mentiuucd in Mr. Baines's note, is not, as he appears to
Kuppose, in memory of a real " Oskell who bore as his crest," &c. ; but merely
explanatory of the Stanley crest there painted. (Sce postea, p. 11.) It provea,
as (he Metrical ilistory docs, that the nnmc Oskel was used in the legend temp.
Hen. VII I. and that tlte Stanley» used botU figures of thc crest, but nothiug morc.

adtl, that tlie fortune of llie suit appcars to Imve turned before
Henry's accession, wben the infant Elena was protected by ihe
Duke of Lancaster in his hei<>ht of power, and Stanley's oppo-
sition was admitted by that King and Duke, in Parliament, to
be " in ipsius Regis et Ducis gravem contemptum, dampnum
non modicum, ac libertatis sue lesionem manifestam."
II. With respect to the assumplion of the regardant Eagle, by
the father of the heiress (in blood) of the eldest line (who in
all circumstances differs most materially from ihe person given
on statements of the Irlani family by Seacome) the Astbury win-
dows are at once decisive, where an Eagle rising, regardant,
standing on a Cradle, is given as the crest of the younger sons
of Elena*s great-great-grandfather, living beyond the period to
which even Seacome's own account of the legend relates. In
some form or other, that bird was Uie bearing of Lathom from
the ver>' earliest usage of crests by knightly farailies. The Eagle
displayed, charged on the breast with the armorial shield, occurs
in the seal appendant to the grants of Sir Thomas Lathom in
the time of Edward III.; and tlie Tarbocks of Tarbock, who
branched from Lathom in the twelfth centuiy, bore, as already
stated, in acknowledgment of common origin, the same arnis
differenced by an Eagle's leg erased in the field, and (by allow-
ance of the heralds in the visitation of 1613) " an Eagle close "
on the helmet.
III. And as to the time and causeof variation, Seacome's opi-
nion is admitted to be formed on a signet, stated to be inherited
from *' Sir Oskatel," and representing the Lathom crest inac-
curately, as " on a wreath, an eagle rising regardantP The
Irlam faraily had allowance of arms, but not of crest, in the
Visitations of 1613 and 1664, and therefore, technically, had no
right to claim any as anterior to Ihese ; but if such crest was ante'
rior, it nevertheless was inaccurate, as proved by the ancient glass
at Astbury, hereafter mentioned ; and the difference, between the
crest there given and the Stanley crest, is not more than a female
Jine, or indeed a junior branch of the same male line would have
adopted. Several branches of Lathom, afler the termination of
the chief line, did adopt what is called " a preying Eagle ; "
as for instance, the Lathams of Congleton early in the sixteenth

8 ON THE STANLEY LEGEND
and not the prey, P and " Non dormit custos" (Psalni cxxi. 4.)
has occurred, as an accompanying motto. It may be difficult
to select a much earlier instance of the Stanley bearing than the
one given in the windows of Northendcn church (Hist. Chesh.
iii. 318.) in the memorials for Sir John Stanley of Elford and
Humphrey Stanley, Canon of Christcliurch, where (in the same
arrangement of devices) hoth eagles are given, as matter o(
heraldic indifference, with infants, underwritten Ostell and
Oskell Lathum,^ and it would surely have been impossible for
the earlier Sir John Stanley to have shewn any coutempt for the
hereditary badge of Elena's father, that would not also affect the
ancestors of his own Isabella. •"
It is very likely, as Dugdale supposes, that the legend, or, as
he terms it, the " credible tradition," may relate to a former
ancestor, " in token whereof, not only his descendants whilst the
niale line endured, but the Stanleys proceeding from the said
Isabel, have ever since borne the child in the eagle's nest, with
the eagle thereon for their crest;" but not thatsuch legend relates
to " a large spread oak in the park at Lathom," which may
more safely be referred to ancestral Northmen, with its scene
in the pine-forests of Scandinavia. It is presumed to have been
proved (as far as could be expected under the circumstances)
that every link of descent in the Lathom famiiy was legitimate
to Isabel ancestress of Stanley, as well as to her brother, tlie
father of the heiress Eiena, her competitor ; that the bearing,
stated to have originated in these disputes, can be traced far be-
yond them, or beyond the usual period of crests in knightly fami-
Vies; and that the Stanley bearing is its reguhir continuation.
The LocAi, suHNAMK of thc Lathoms is still of frequent
occurrence in ihe Lancashire hundred of WestDerby ; but, not-
i' So in the Butaile of Brampton or Floddon, speaking of King James,
" He was prostrate
By tbe helpe of th' Eagle tcith her swadied chylde."
t In the original Visitalion of 1613 (Uarl. MSS. 1437), the verbal blazon leaves
the /orm of the vrcst indiflfercnt, simply stating " an Eagle and Child ;" see note *
following.
' The proclamation of Hcnry VIH. at Elthara, in honour of the hero of Floddoo,
takes the same view of the Stanley badge, as a long transmitted bearing, " for that
hU anceHtort bore the eagle in their crest, he should bc proclaimcd Lord of Mont-
«ygle." Dugdalc, Baron. ii. 255. Henry would scarccly apply such phra«e to the
usuge of the four male generation» which preceded the said Peer. The bird of Flod-
don, moreover, "with wings wapped « Ae i«)«»Wy7ce," ^linc T5"i,) if thc poeticai
Chronicler may be tnuted, was the rising cagle.
AND FAMILY OF LATHOM, &C. 9
withstanding their early settlement and vvide raniificatiun, it
exists no longer among the ancient hereditary gentry of that
county, attiichment to Romanism and to the Stuarts having sub-
verted most of the coUaterals.
The earliest olf-shoot, Torbock of Torbock in Knowsley
iordship, entered in the Visitations of 1532 and 1567, is con-
tinued a generation further in Harl. MSS. 1549, and occurs in
the Lanc. Inq. p. m. in 1640, and was intimately re-connected
with the parent stock by several intermarriages. *
The Lathoms of Mosborough (grantees thereof 20 Edw. l.)
entered fourteen descents in the Visitation of 1613. They are
alluded to as Catholics in Tracts about 1645, but have not
occurred subsequently ; but from them, or from Parbold, several
branches connected with Ormskirk are supposed to be de-
rived. '
Lathom of Astbury (Cheshire) descending from Philip
younger son of Sir Robert de Lathom," is clearly identified by
the ancient painted glass formerly in that church, nearly of the
time of Edw. IIL * Several sons, ancestors of collateral lines,
occur therein, and in the MSS. of Sir P. Leycester at Tabley.
Of these, Robert Lathom (living 1 Rich. III.) was fathcr of
Blanche, sole daughter and heiress, wife of Richard Massey,
a younger brother of Sir GeofFrj- Massey, ofTatton. From lier
descended, as representative colieirs, the families of Newton,
MoRETON, Mere, and Somerfoud, of which — Mere alienated

( Westmorland) representative of Sonierford, forfeited in 1715.y
Nicholas Lathom, one of the collaterals of this branch, is be-
lieved to have been lineal male ancestor of Alexander Lathom
of Congleton in Astbury,^' temp. Hen. VIH. and surviving 1571
and 1578. No direct evidence is attainabie on this point; but
the descent of the latter from Astbury has been supported by
uniform family tradition ; the Latliam cognizance appears on
his seal, appendant to exlsting deeds; tiie Newtons (coheire of
the elder line) occur in fines connected therewith; and the early
collaterals of his family bore the family names of the older
branch. From this Alexander, lands in Astbury parish de-
scended to his immediate representative John Latham, M.D.
of Bradwall Hall in Sandbach, in whose wife (as eldest co-
heiress of Mere of Mere) fetnale representation of the elder
line is vested, as appears by the pedigree annexed.»
JoHN Latham, M.D. of RuMSEY, the Ornithologistj and
WiLLiAM Latham, Esq. F.S.A. of Quenby Hall, Leicester-
shire (sons of John Latham of Wheelockin Sandbach, descended
from Ralph Latham of Haslington 15G4) were of a branch scat-
tered widely over the boiders of Cheshire and Staflordsiiire,
which the last mentioned antiquary referred to Astbury, but
proof of connection is lost. ^

well as the addition of the bend, differ in the latter part only from the contem-
porary bearing of the chief line given in the Roll of Arm» (1337 — 1350) published
by Sir N. H. Nicolas, p. 22, " Le Sire de Latham porte d'Or a un cheif d'afur

AND FAMILY OF LATHOM, &C. l^
Heii. VIII. and the descent of Thomas Lathom (apparently his
son) is continued in Uugdale*s Visitation to 1661. This branch
was also of Allerton near Liverpooi (the seat of the Hard-
mans, and of Roscoe the historian) which was sequestrated,
during the Protectorate, in the life of Richard Lathom of Far-
bold, uterine brother of Sir Thomas Tildesley, the ceiebrated
friend and fellow-soldier of the royalist E^rl of Derby. Baines
mentions that possession of Allerton was disputed by the Par-
bold family after the Restoration, and refers to it Peter
Lathom, who devised considerabie sums to local charities about
1720.
The luLA.M Hne (according to Seacome) descended from (a
non-existent personage) Sir Oskatel, stated to be the iliegitimate
brother of Lady Stanley, and, when disowned, to have received
the *' mannors of Earlom and Urmston" near Manciiester, and
Hawthorne in Cheshire. (Edmund) Lathum of Irlam, temp.
Car. I., is said to have joined the royalists, and suffered over-
whelming persecutions, leaving one son, last heir male, whose
eslate, recovered during his minority, was finally ruined at tlie
Revolution. In confirniation of the alleged descent, Seacome*s
informant, Captain Finney of Fulshaw, quotes the kindness of
Earl Charles to Edmund's son when a boy, and his uniform
practice of calling him " the top of his kin," the latter being
probably mere good-humoured ievity, and the former originating
in pity for the son of his father's friend.
Captain Finney's authority was Mary Lathum, sister of the
last heir male, born about 1645, and to a certain degree corope-
tent to speak from contemporary recoUeclion, but certainly not
so as to facts alleged to have occurred in the fourteenth cen-
tury, and olherwise unsupported. From the prominent situa-
tion which this branch occupies in Seacome, the pedigree is
brought down through the Visitations from its commencement,
and continued to his time.«l The arins allowed in 1613 were
Liithom, with besanta in chief, as difference ; but in 1664 Dug-
CoU. Arm. but is identified as brother of the last Sir Thomas Latham, by the Inq.
p. m. taken 8 Ric. II. He appears to be the Edward Lathum " del age xl ans et
ploz " examined at Lancaster Sept. 19, 1386, in the Scrope aad Grosrenor Contro-
versy, voL i. p. 306.

12 ASHTON, OF ASHTON-UNDER-LINE.
(lale allowed the plates in chief, with u bendlet Gules for difier-
ence; and the female descendants, down to 1819,econtinued this
beiidlet over all, which was also sometimes used by Mosborough,
as well as Astbury. Irlam (in partial conformity with the family
tradition) rnay descend in the female line from the heiress Elena,
but was in all likelihood a branch from Mosborough or Par-
bold ; which last pedigree is defective at the tirae when the Irlam
pedigree commences.
NoTE A. See p. 2.
As to alleged raale descent of Ashton of Ashton-undcr-Line from
Orme Fitz-Ailwabd.
The old Lancashlre genealogists have stated thls Orme to be male
anccstor of the Ashtotis of Ashton-under-Line : Collins (Baronetage,
1720, vol. ii. 207.) making hira grandfather of Sir Thomas Ashton,
wardcn of the Cinque-ports in 1381, vvhich is manifestly impossible, as
Robert Grcslci, to whom Orrac was uncle by raarriage, was aged ouly
eleven years in IISG, and Orme himself appears to have been boru
about 1 130, by calculation of descents.
Other pcdigrees vary the head of this genealogy, and Baines (Lanc.
ii. 532.) has introduced some new members of it, namely, " Roger de
Wrightington," ahas de Ashton, alias Fitz Orm, from Kuerden's MSS.
and '' Thoraas de Ashton, with Orm his father," from a deed stated to
be existing in 1617 j butfrom these no descent is attempted lo be proved,
(although thc priuted line of dcsceut froni thera is given as establishcd);
aud if the Ashtons really descended froui Orme Fitz-Aihvard, it seems
impossible that it can be otherwise than thiough a female, coheiress
with the ancestress of Lathom.
But, is the great lordship of Ashton identical with thc humblc caru-
cate of " Eston," given as part of Emnia de Greslei's inheritance in
marriagc with the said Orme, and held immediately frora Manchestcr
Barony by render of xs. ?
An original deed is given by Eaines, ii. 536. from which it appears
that Ashton manor was held iraraediatcly from Manchcster by Sir John
* Letter from P. Davenport Finney, Esq. 1819. In the Visitationa of 1613 and
1G64 no crest accompanies the arms allowed to tlie Irlam branch. In the original
Visitation Book Dugdale writes " Qu. Crest /" butin thc office copy (his own auto-
graph) gives none. Informntion of C. G. Young, Esq. York Herald. This is more
particularly murked, as Scucome'8 argument turns mainly on the fgure of the
Irlam crest. See p. 7.
ASHTON, OF ASHTON-UNDER-LINE. 13
Ashton, 13 Hen. IV. by the render of xxij». and a hawk, or payment
of \\s. for forester's pnture. This proves it to be what, in Cheshire,
wa» called " a wareland" within the Chace of Blakeley. Another ex-
tract from an indcnture of Feb. 1413 (ibid.) states that the manor
then hcld by the said Sir John, was held iu 12 Edw. I. (1283), imme^
diately from Manchester, not by Jshtons, but by the aucestor of Sir
Richard de Kirkby j and documents are quoted (ibidem) to show, that
in 5 Hen. VI. the Ashtons held as a subinfeudation under Kirkby. It
does not appear that au Ashton really held that manor, by any known
antlientic decd, before a charter of free warren 9 Edw. III.
It has escaped observation that there were two Estones in Manches-
ter Barony, Ashton subtus limam and Orm-Eston, the latter being only
dinded by the Mersey from a third Ashton, whicli had lords of its
local name. VVith this second vili the Eston of Ihe Testa de Neville raay
with equal or greater propriety be identifted, namely, vith Orm-Eston,
now Urmston, i/i the parish of Ftixton, which church was given by La-
thom to Barscough ; which Flixton *' Eston " follows in the Testa de
Neville ; and in which Unnston (anciently Ormeston and adjacent to
Irlam) the last Lathum of Irlara's representative informed Seacomc
that bis family held a manor, derived (according to family tradition)
from the elder line. It is certain that this township in the time of Edw.
III. gave nameto Adam de Ormestone, and that Urmston's heir (Dugd.
Visit. Lanc ) brought a manor here to Hide of Denton ; but this clashes
in no way with the desceut of the single carucate, or the possibility of
a separate or paramount manerial interest.
It is immaterial to the discussion which ofthese vills was " Eston," and
whether Ashton inherited from Orme Fitz-Ailward in either or m both
of them, or otherwise ; but it is presumed to be proved, that if Ashton
was heir, he must be coheir, in the female liue, and coheir with Lathom.

With respect to the existing evidences of the legitimate descent of the
Lathoms of Lathom during the entire period to which the Legend

and JoHN DuKE of Lancaster, on behalf of his ward, Elena de

feoflfinent had been made to Robert and Catharine his wife, for their
lives ; remainder to Thomas, son of Robert. and heirs of his body ; re-
mainder to Joan his sistcr, &c. ; and also that a feoffment had been
made of the manors of Childwall, Aulesarghe, and one fourth of Wright-
ington, held of John Warre, Knt. to said Thonias aud Eleanor his wife,
daughter of John de Ferrers, Clievr, and tlie heirs of their bodies, re-

And that the said Thomas died (holding otlier estatcs aud homages
irrelevant to this subject) Tuesday after feast of Exaltalion (Sept. 14)

dau^hier and heiress qf Thomas son of Thomas de Lathom, Knt. son of
Thomas son of Robert, Chevalier, is cottsin and next heir of the afore-
said Thomas sou of Robert de Lathom, who is of the age of one year and
one month.
lu indorseraent of Close RoU (Duchy Records) 1377, next appear
an enrollment* of a grant frora Thomas de Lathom of lands in Lathoin
and elsewhere to Robert de Breton, vicar of Huyton, and Thomas de
Ryding, chaplain (granted 49 Edw. IIL 1375), this Thomas being evi-
dently Sir Thomas de Lathora, who (according to the above Inq. p. in.)
entered, in 1370, after his father'» death, and received profits, &c. for
twelve years (saving of Wrightington which he— namely, Sir Thomas
last mentioned — had alienated to his younger brother Edward) and
then died, viz. in 1382.
By Joanna, daughter of Hugh Venables, Baron of Kinderton, Che-
shire (Latham pedigree Coll. Arin. and Leycester'8 MS. pedigree frona
Kinderton deeds), Sir Thomas left a daughter, Isabella de Lathom,
who married Sir John Stanley ; but by inquisition aforesaid it appears,
that after the death of Thomas de Lathom, Chr. came Thomas son of
the aforesaid Thomas de Lathom, Knt. and enfered on the premises, as
in the inquisition, and took profits for a year and a half, except as to
Wrightington, and that aftcr the death of the aforesaid Thomas (in
1384) the landa were seized iiito the Duke's hands, by reason of the
nonage of Elena, daughter of Thoraas beforementioned, Roger de Fa-
zackerly taking the profits for half a ycar, and the Duke subsequently,
viz. up to Lent 1385.
In confirmation, it apiwars from the calendars of Duchy Close Rolls,
that in 1382 a writ* to tiic eschaetor issued on the death of Isabels
copy of the tinae of Ilenry VII. Tlie date 44 Edw. III. hae hecn altered to 24, in

death of Thomas Lathom, for setting* out dower in Latbum for the
widow Isabella Lathom, and for proceeding* in an assize of novel-
disseizin as to Knowselegh, Cbildwall, Roby, and Aulasargh, on behalf
of said Roger de Fazackerley, foUowed by a mandamus* to the cschaetor
on behalf of the Duke (guardian of Elena), and lastly, a precept* to
sheriff to give seisin of tenements in Latbum to Isabella, tbe widow.
Tbe course of which is accordant to the tenor of the inquisition 8
Rich. II.
In tbis last year (1385) the opposition of the daughter Isabella ap-
pears to have commenced, as tbe Duke of Lancaster (Parl. RoUs, 9
Rich. II.) complained verbally and grievously to tbe King, Prelates, and
Peers in Parliament, tbat the manor of Lathom, beld under him in Than-
age, beiug seized into his hands on account of tbe nonage of the heir
of Thomas sou of Sir Tbomas de Latbom, knt., Jobn de Stanley, Knt.
pretending thatthe said manor belonged to hira after the deatb of the
said Thomas, son of Sir Tbomas, in right of bis wife Isabel, by pretext
of a» entaily bad entered into the same, witbout livery or suit in the
Duke's Chancery ; whereupon, after consultation of tbe Judges of each
Bencb, Serjeauts and lawyers (at tbe Duke's petitiou) it is determined
that the entry was uulawful, and tbat Stanley must proceed in the Dnke'8
Chancery, by petition, or otherwise.
In tbe same year, the Calendar of Close Rolls gives the Duke's
*' mandate* to the Justices of the Bencb, to pruceed (for Roger Fazac-
kerlev) on novel disseizin as to the t^nements of Sir Tbomas Lathom,
knt. in Knowsley, Cbildwall, Roby, and Anblesargb, and on no account
togive judgment without tbe Dnke's advice.
Sncb judgment does notappear, but in 1386 is the Duke'8 writ* for
redisseizin for roessuages and lands in Latbum on behalf of Robert de
Barton (grantee of Sir Thomas in 13/5) and in 9 Hen. IV. Isabella
Stanley was, donbtless, finally settled in the inheritance of ber fatbers,
as by a cbarter of that year, Sir John Stanley, Steward of the Honse-
hold, bas free warren in his manor of Weton, and by anotber cbarter,

NOTICES OF THE FAMILY OF IIODY, &C.
Thr following will of Sir John Hody of Pillesdon in Dorset-
shire, Knt. Chief Justice of England, is from the register of
the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth, " Chichele, 481^."
It was not known to the editor of the last edition of Hutchins's
History of Dorset; and will serve to correct some errors in, and
add illustration to, the pedigree there given of the family of
Hody.
Sir John Hody was appointed to fill the high office of Chief
Justice of the King's Bench on the 13th of Aprii 1440, in the
18th year of King Henry VI. » The appointment of his suc-
cessor Sir John Fortescue, celebrated as the author of the trea-
tise "De laudibus legum Angliae," is dated on the 25th of Jan.
1442-3.»^ Both these learned persons are enumerated by Sir
Edward Coke amongst the " famous and expert sages of the
law," from whom Littieton had " great furtherance in compos-
injz his Institutes of the Laws of England." The name of Sir
John Hody does not appear in Dugdale's " Chronica Series "
prior to his elevation to the Bench : he had previously, how-
ever, been called to the degree of King's Serjeant at Law ; and
imder that designation both he and Fortescue are found as ar-
bitrators awarding in a dispute between John Plunger, Perpe-
tual Vicar of the parish of " St. Dunstan's West in Fleele-
strete in the suburbs of London," and John Mayor and John
Holdernesse, keepers of tlie works and oniaments of the said
church, on the one hand, and William Pepyr and Jolni Whit-
tokesmede on the other ; respecting the foundntion of a perpe-
tual chantry at the altar of St. Catharine in the said cliurch,
pursuant to the will of Thomas Duyk, Jate citizen ofLondon.
This award is dated on tlie 8th July 1439, 17 Hen. VL i'
The family of Hody was of considerable antiquity in the
county of Devon. According to the Testa de Nevill, Jordan

de Hode held the third part of a knight's fee in Hode, and half
a fee in Walleworth in that county, of Nicholas Fitz-Martin.
Richard Hody was King*s Escheator of Devonshire, 31 Edw.
IH. «^ and died about 32 Edw. HI. seised of West Raddon and
Mershewode manors in that county, and leaving Thomas Hody
his son and heir, then fifteen years of age. ^ The pedigree of
the family, taken at the visitation of Somerset in 1623, com-
mences with John Hody of Stawel in that county, who is said
to have been father of the Chief Justice. e This, however, is
an error, as appears from the foUowing will, where the name of
Sir John's father is shown to have been Thomas, while his unde
is raentioned by the name of John.

We learn from this will, that besides John, William, and
Margaret, who are the only children of Sir John Hody named
in the pedigrees in the Visitation books, he had two other sons,
Thomas and Alexander, and a daughter Johanna, then married
to Nicholas Latimer, s besides other daughters then unmarried.
The names of these latter daughters are not mentioned; but from a
pedigree of the family of Bond, of Grange, in Dorsetshire, in the
College of Arms, ^ it appears that Mary, one of the daughters
of Chief Justice Hody, was married in 1453 to Robert Bond of
Hache Beauchamp in the county of Somerset, and Lutton in
the county of Dorset. The other daughter, Margaret, is stated
in the Visitation book to have married Thomas Baynham of
Deans in the county of Gloucester.
Of the sons of Sir John Hody, it is probable that Thomas and
Alexander died young in their mother's life time. John the
eldest was seated at Stowel in the county of Somerset, and at
Nitheway in the parish of Brixham in Devonshire, and his pos-
terity long continued there. William the second son was
knighted, and became Chief Baron of the Exchequer, 22 Oct.
1487, 2 Hen. VII. » and was ancestor of a line which flourished
for many generations at Pillesdon. Prince, in his " Worthies
« This, according to the pedigree of the family given by Hutchins, was Sir
Nicholas Latymer of Duntish, co. Dorset, Knt. Sheriff of Dorset and Somerset, 22
Hen. VL and 11 Edw. IV. He afterwards married a second wife Margaret, who
is named in his will, dated 8 Feb. 1504, proved 17 April 1505, and registered in
the Prerogative Office.

26 NOTICES OF THE FAMILY OF HODY,
of Devon," relatesa tradition of Sir John Hody having tried and
pronounced sentence of death at the public assizes, on his own
son Thomas, who was found guilty of a capital crime. Tliis
story is amply refuted by the editor of Hutchins, who, however,
erroneously supposed that the Chief Justice had no son of that
uame.
Sir Alexander Hody, brother of Sir John, was attainted on
ihe accession of the house of York for his adherence to the oppo-
site party ; and his lands, having been forfeited on that account,
were afterwards restored to his nephew Sir William. ^ By an
inquisition taken at Yeovil on tlie 26 Oct. 1 Edw. IV. it was
found that he held at his death, in right of Margaret his wife,
"who survived him, the manors of Westbourn, Everley, Weme-
don, Tokeswill, &c. besides other lands and hereditaments in the
county of Somerset, and that having been also seised of the
manor and advowson of Oterhampton, the manors of Newnam
and Godelney, as well as of lands in Bowre de la Mere, Wol-
lavyngton, Stoke Courcey, and elsewhere in the same county, he
had conveyed the latter by deed dated 5 July, 38 Hen. VI. to
certain feoffees upon trust, after his decease, to enfeoff Margaret
his wife therein for her life, remainder to W^illiam Hody senior
in tail, remainder to William brother of the said William in
tail, remainder to his own right heirs. l It appears also by an-
other inquisition taken at the same time, that he held the manor
of Kington Magna with rent in Kington Parva, &c. in the
county of Dorset, which he settled in the same way. He died
16 May 1461, and John, son of Sir John Hody, Knt. brother of
the said Alexander, was his kinsman and heir, and of the age of
26 years and upwards.
EHzabeth, the wife of Sir John Hody, was the daughter and
eventually heir of John Jewe of Whitefield, in the parish of
Wiveliscomb, in the county of Somerset, and not of Whitfield
in the county of Devon, as erroneously stated in tlie Visitation
books, and all other pedigrees of the family of Hody. She
brought with her in marriage the manors of Pillesdon, Putton,
and Chickerel, in the county of Dorset, and those of East and
West Whitfiekl, besides other iands in Somersetshire. After
the death of her first husband, she becaiue tlie wife of Kobert

Cappes, Esq. who was Sheriff of Dorset and Soraerset 24 Hen.
VI. and by whom she had a son James.
By an inquisition taken after her death at Bridport, co. Dor-
set, on the 30tli Nov. 13 Edw. IV. it appears that she was seised
in fee of the manors of Piilesdon, Putton, and Chickerell, be-
sides lands in Atram, and a messuage in Dorchester, in the
county of Dorset, and that having obtained a release thereof
from John Hody her eldest son, by deed dated 22 April, 8 Edw.
IV. she settled the manor of Pillesdon, in conjunction with Ro-
bert Cappes her husband, by a fine levied at Westminster, in
three weeks from Michaelmas in the same year, upon herself
and her husband for life, remainder to William Hody her son,
in taiJ, remainder to her own right heirs. And by another
inquisition taken at Crokeherne, co. Somerset, 31 Oct. 13 Edw.
I V. she was found to have held the manors of East and West
W^hitfield, with lands in Fyfehed, Mertok, Chiew, Kynges-
bury Episcopi, Compton Pauncefote, and Chilteme Dummer,
in fee, and a similar release thereof having been made to her
by her son John, and bearing the same date as the above,
she limited the manors of East and West Whitfield, with the
lands in Pyfehed, by a fine levied at Westminster at the same
time as the foregoing, to herself and her husband for their
Jives, remainder to James Cappys their son in tail, remainder to
her son William Hody, remainder to her own right lieirs. It
appears further that William Carent, Esq. having been seised
of the manor of Stowell (no doubt as trustee to her first hus-
band), had conveyed the same to her for life, remainder to die
said John Hody her son in fee. This feoffment was made after
her second marriage, and it is probable therefore that the manor
of Stowell was not part of her own inheritance. She died on
the third of August 13 Edw. IV. leaving John Hody, son of Sir
John Hody, Knt., her son and heir, then of the age of 30 years
and upwards. ™
These inquisitions seem to confirm the account of Sir William
Pole," who, speaking of Elizabeth Cappes, says, " This woman
disinherited her eldest sonne, and conveyed her land part unto
Sir William Hody, Chief Baron, and part unto her issue by
Cappis. Between whose issue," he further says, *' there con-
tinued a long contention."

The will of Robert Caps is recorded in the Prerogative office,
and was dated at Pyllesdon, 24 Aug. 1475. He gives a silver
cup and other articles of plate to William ' Hordy,' and makes
James Caps, his son, and Radegund wife of the said James, his
executors.
The manor of Pillesdon seems to have been acquired by the
family of Jewe, by inheritance from the ancient family of Pil-
lesdon, which had previously possessed it from a very early
period. In the first of King John, there was a suit between
Peter de Bucwde and Richard del Estre concerning the custody
of the lands» and heir of Waneis de Pilesden. °
In Hilaiy term, lOth John, Henry de Catesclive and Felicia
his wife demanded against the Abbat of Ford, four hides of land
in Burgestoke and Catesclive, co. Dorset, as the right of the said
Fehcia, to which the Abbat pleads that he and his Monks held
the same by grant from Warresius de Pillesdon, and in proof
thereof he produces the charter of the said Warresius. P By
an assize 28 Hen. III. it was found that one furlong of land in
Morbath, co. Dorset, was the inheritance of Basilia, lale the
wife of Warresius de Pillesdon, who died on his journey to
Jerusalem, and that Eudo de Pillesdon was the son and heir of
the said Warresius, and then under age. Q
By a fine levied at Westminster, in fifteen days from Easter,
6 Edw. III. and afterwards in the octaves of the Holy Trinity,
in the same year, John de Pylesdon and Margery his wife settled
a messuage, two acres of land, twenty acres of meadow, forty
acres of alderbed, and 50«. rent, in Pylesdon, Stondelegh, and
Whytchurch, co. Dorset, upon themselves for their lives, re-
mainder to their sons, John, Thomas, Nicholas, William, Ro-
bert, and Stephen, successively in tail, remainder to John the
father in fee. ^ Besides these children, John de Pillesdon had a
daughter Alice, who married John le Jeu, son of William le
Jeu, as appears by the following fines : and as the manor of
Pillesdon passed from the family of Pillesdon to that of Jewe,
not very long after this period, it rnay reasonably be conjec-
tured that all the sons of John de Pillesdon died without issue,

Westchikerell and Podyngton, the inheritance of William Jewe,
were conveyed by the said William, by fme, to Alice Malet^
for her life, with remainder to John Jewe and his heirs. y
In 20th Ric. II. Iloger le Walsch and John Jewe held the
fourth part of a knight's fee in Chickerell and West Chickerell
of William Montacute, Earl of Sarum. z The will of tiiis John
Jewe is found in the Register of the Archbishop of Canterbury
at Lambeth, " Chichele/' n». 32, f. 294^, by which it appears,
that besides Elizabeth, who afterwards became the wife of Sir
John Hody, he had three sons, John, William, and Thomas,
and a daughter Johanna. All these no doubt died without issue,
for it is shown by the foregoing inquisitions that the manor of
Pillesdon, as well as the other estates of the family, eventually
centred in Elizabeth Hody : and it appears by Hutchins, that
she is described in the institution books of the Bishop of Salis-
bury in 1438, as " Elizabeth, wife of John Hody, daughter and
heir of John Jewe deceased."

SEPULCHRAL INSCRIPTIONS AT THE SCOTCH COLLEGE, PARIS.
To the greater part of the visitors of this gay and busy capital the
remote quarter of the University, the old university of Paris, is as little
known as the steppes of Russia ; the dirtiness of the district, the vvide
ruin with which the hand of popular violence and revolutionary madncss
has passed over all the ancient institutions of an academical nature con-
nected with the metropolis, and the comparativcly limited number of
archaeological travellers who are the only persons likcly to look after the
skeletons of colleges and halls, — all this tends to the increase of that
forgetfulness with which these remains of the academic splendour of
one of the greatest universities of Europe are now unjustly treated.
The Scotch College (Le College des Escossais, as the old
inscription in gold letters on a black marble slab over the door-
way, still terms it,) the second of the British Catholic foundations in
the French metropolis, was originally founded by David Bisliop of
Moray iu Scotland in 1385, and was first situated in a building in the
Rue des Amandiers, some traces of which may still be made out. It was
one of the smallest foundations of the university, and had not prospered
like some of its contemporaries ; for in 1603 it was so far fallen into
decay as to need a complete regeneration and refoundation from the
munificent hand of Archbishop, afterwards Cardinal, Beatoun of Glas-
gow. In 1605 the college was transferred to its present site in the Rue
des Fossds St. Victor, and here it was destined to remain and to under-
go a second dissolution during the troubled timcs of the great Revolu-
tion. The private history of this, as well as of the other British foun-
dations of Paris, is but little, if at all, known : whatever is to be found
upon the subject is at present under course of compilation, and will
some day or other be made public. It will be sufficient to say, that
partly from thc loss of some of the estates belonging to this foundation,
and partly from the small dcmand for Catholic priests in Scotland, the
college for the present remaius in abeyance j the funds being allowed
to accumulate, and being carefully administered by a Curator appointed
by government. At a future timc the College may rise from its long
sleep, and again become a flourishing house of education : but at present
the buildings, which arc in pcrfectly good condition, are let out on lease
to a private school, and the name alone rcuiains to its walls.
SCOTCH COLLEGE AT PARIS. 33
The Chapel of this College possesses a great point of attraction to all
«tudents of Englisb bistory, and to all who have hearts to feel for the
misfortunes of an exiled racc of kings. James the Second and his family
bore a peculiar afTection to all the Britisb foundations of Paris, as me-
mentos of the good land they bad lost : when they entered within their
walls they stood on British and on Catholic ground ; they were sur-
rounded by young British hearts tbat cherished both love and respect
for them in retorn for their favour and patronage ; and hence wben tbe
monarch died he bequeathed, as was tbe fashion at the court of France,
various parts of his mortal rcmains to the various coUeges. Where part
of the monarcb was interred, it was ver)' natural that bis consort and bis
children sbould wish to lie also, and that the most faitbful and the most
tenderly attached of his officers and followers sbould also desire to be
buried. Accordingly we find in tbe chapels of the Scotch and Irisb col-
leges many of the tombs of the courtiers of the unfortunate James II.
and by a curious circumstance we find them nearly all uninjured, not-
withstanding that so many years of revolutionary vandalism have swept
over the land.
Tbe King left his brains to tbis coUege, and it used to be said, other
parts, but this is raore than doubtful, to the Irish and Euglisb colleges.
His heart was bequeathed to tbe Dames de S^ Marie at Chaillot, and
his entrails were buried at St. Germain en Laye, wbere a handsorae
monuraent bas been erected to bis memory by order of George IV. ; but
the body itself was interred in the monastery of Englisb Benedictine
monksthat once existed iu the Rue du Faubourg St. Jacques close to the
Val de Grace. In tbis latter house, previous to tbe Revolution, the follow-
ing simple inscription marked where the monarch's body lay :
" Cl GIST JaCQUES II. Roi DE LA GbANDE BrETAGNE."
In the chapel of the Scotch CoUege meraentos of the Queen aud the
daugbter, Louisa Maria, of the detbroned King were also deposited.
In the Irish and Englisb coUeges no traces of any royal torabs exist,
nor are tbeir cbapels so rich in raonuraeutal reraains as those of the
Scotch institution.
The chapel of this latter bouse is a small room, perfectly well suited,
however, to the original size of the fonndation : it is fitted up with black-
oak stalls and altar-work, witb a small gallerj' at the west end for the
Principal, and a vestry or sacristy behind the altar at the east.a It is of
the lonic order. On the side fronting tbe door of entry stands the
King's tomb in grey, biack, and white marble — an obelisk on a sarco-
» Thc library of the college, formerly over the chapel, wa» given up in 1838 hj
the Frencli Govemment to the Catholic Bishop of Edinborgh, and has «ince been
removed to Aberdeen.

phagus, with drapery forming a kind of canopy above.'' The obelisk was
surraounted by an urn of bronze gilt, with the brains of the King con-
tained in it ; but this was taken away at the tirae of the Revolution.
The other tombs are only plain slabs on the walls or on the ground :
where any of thera contained brazen plates of arms they have been de-
spoiled ; but they are otherwise in good condition. The tablet com-
memorating the two founders of the coUege is tlie most interesting after
that of the King ; the history of the institution being briefly suoimed up
in their monumental inscription (see p. 4 1 ).

waste of the said woods, but see them safely kept in the spring
time as wood ought to be.
FRANCIS TANFIELD, ESg.
12 Jan. 38 Hen. VIII. (1547). I will that my manors, lands,
&c. in Harpoll, co. Northampton, and all my lands, &c. in
Gayton and Middleton in the said county, which Isabella Hum-
phry my mother, late wife of William Tanfield my fatlier, held
in dower, and also my lands, &c. in Aspley, co. Bedford, and all
my manor, lands, &c. in Everton and Tetworth, co. Hunting-
don, with 53/. 5s. 3d. yearly, after my decease, shall remain to
my lawful heir or heirs. And I will that the King shall have
the wardship and premier seisin, as the case shall require, of the
said manors and lands, as to the third part of all the manors,
lands, &c. of me the said Francis. I will that my well beloved
wife Bridget Tanfield have in recompence of her dower my
manor of Gayton, co. Northampton, with lands and appurte-
nances in Myddleton [Milton Malsor], Floure, Northampton,
Courtenhall, ColHngtree, and Creaton, and also my manors,
lands, &c. in Assheley and Ravensthorp, co. Northampton, and
all my lands and tenements in Gretton, co. Northampton, and
ali my lands, &c. in Midgham, co. Berks, for life of said Bridget.
I wiil that my executors receive the profits of my woods of
Westbagburgh, Durburgh, Gu..stork, Fydyock, and Clelbery,
co. Somerset, and of my manor, lands, &c. in Peaton, co. Devon,
for certain term of years to payment of my debls, bequests, &c.
and also virtuously to bring up and find my children Robert
Tanfield, Abraham Tanfield, and John Tanfield, until they are
aged twenty-one, or else married. 1 bequeath to my daugh-
ters Margaret Tanfield, Bridget Tanfield, and Sarah Tanfield,
200/. each at the age of twenty years, and if any of my said
daughters die before marriage, I wili that her 200/. shall remain
to my next heir, and if another of my said daughters die, her
200/. also to go to my next heir ; and if all my said daughters die
before marriage, I will that my younger sons have 300/. and the
46 TRANSCRIPTS AND
residue to Bridget my wife towards the performance of my
legacies, &c. And whereas my brother William Tanfield has
the manor of Potton, co. Bedford, and whereas I have granted
to Bridget my wife [irUer al) the manor-house of Gayton with
Ashley and the parsonage there, I do give by this my will to
my said wife all the said manor of Gayton with appurtenances
for life, if she continue a widow, and if she marry, I will that the
said manor-house, parsonage, &c. revert to my son and heir if he
will, rendering to her during her coverture 13/. 6«. ^d. yearly;
and if she will not sufFer my said son and heir to have the said
house, &c. then I will that my said wife shall not have any

benefit shall come to Clement Tanfield my son and heir appa-
rent. I will that the said Clement my son, so soon as the
gifts and legacies of this my will be paid, shall forthwith pay
to the said Bridget my wife money to the value of the third of
my manors, lands, &c. for life, and if the said Clement refuse,
then I bequeath to my said wife all such part with benefits and
profits that my said son Clement may have by this my last will.
And forasmuch as my lands appointed to the use of my will
cannot discharge my debts, therefore I will my executors to sell
as much of my woods in the counties of Somerset and Devon
as will pay the same. I will that Bridget my wife shall have
the advowson of Harpole for hfe if she continue sole.

have given to my son Chamberlaine and my daughter Dorothy
his wife being excepted ; and if my executors can discharge my

said lands now remaining to me in Bodington, shall remain to
Alban Butler my eldest son, giving 80/. to his sister, my daugh-
ter Dorothy ; and if the said Alban refuseth so to do, I will my
said daughter Dorothy to have all my lands in Nether Boding-

who died in that year, leaving only one daughter, Maud, who was
eight years of age ; and the Inquisition states the lands to be in
Lincolnshire ; whereas the lands of this Brian were chiefly in
Yorkshire. Besides, it is certain that he was not only summoned
to Parliament till 33 of EMw. I. as Dugdale himself asserts ; but
he was also called upon in 34 Edw. I. amongst the Earls and
Barons of the kingdom for an aid upon occasion of the King's
eldest son receiving the honour of knighthood. These circum-
stances I conceive put it beyond doubt that he could not be dead
in the 30 Edw. I.

are alleged to be descended;d and the authors of that descent
assert that he was called WilHam de Hamilton from the place
of his birth. But I have never met with any thing like autho-
rity to warrant or even countenance such an idea. On the con-
trary, in the account of his foundation of St. Leonard's Hospital
in Leicester he is only called William the Leper : " Robertus

In a grant of his mother to the Abbey of Lira of 40«. to keep
an auniversary for this very man, he is called Williani de Bri-
tolio; and his sister Amicia de Montfort gave an annuity to the
same monks ^^ pro animafratris mei WUlielmide Britolio." ^
But what puts this matter, as I conceive, beyond doubt is
this, viz. If the Wiiliam de Ilamilton had really been the third
son of Robert Blanchniains, he or his son would have been the
true heir to the Earldom of Leicester after the death of Robert
Fitz-Pamell his alleged brother.

ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE. 51
P. 109, 1. 63, note. It appears by Glover*s Collectanea (al-
ready referred to in ihe text), and by several other pedigrees of
Clavering, as well as by all the pedigrees of Neville, that this
Ralph Neville had married Eva, or Eufemia, the daughter and
heir of this Sir John Clavering, and Dugdale himself asserts it
under the title of Neville, though not here. But notwithstand-
ing all these authorities I cannot help thinking that no such mar-
riage did really take place. I have not found any inquisition
taken after the death of Sir John de Clavering : but in that for
his wife Hawisia a». 19 Edw. III. it is stated that Eva her daugh-
ter was her next of kin, and that Ralph Neville was heir to cer-
tain of the lands virtiUe doni. >
The agreement of marriage between Sir John and Hawisia
was in the 6th Edw. I.*' when he was not more than twelve years
of age, and she survived him thirteen years ; so that it is clear
he had no other wife, and as Eva was forty years old at the
death of her mother, it is also clear that she must have been the
daughter of Hawisia by Sir John Clavering.
Dugdale says she had sons and daughters by both her hus-
bands. The Genealogia Fundatoris of the Priory of Horsham
gives the lady four husbands, ' viz. Ist. Thomas de Audley, ob.
s. p. 2ndly, Sir liaiph Ufford, Knt. by whom she had three
sons, John, Robert, and Edmund. 3rdly, James de Audiey, by
whom two sons, James and Peter, and two daughters, Anne
and Hawisia; and 4thly, Robert Benhale, Knt. who died with-
out issue. I quote this because I think it deserves some no-
tice, though I cannot help suspecting the truth of it. She was
forty years old at the death of her mother a^. 19 Edw. III. •
Dugdale himself, under the title Audley, says that Thomas
Audley, whom he makes the second husband, died without issue
a°. l Edw. II. ;ra now, as Ralph de Ufford lived till the 20th
Edw. Ill.n it must be clear that, if she did mariy both, Audley
must have been the first and Ufford the second ; but I think it
will appear from what follows thai she was never married to
Ufford. In 16 Edw. III. she and her husband Robert de Ben-
haie were parties in a fine with Ralph Neville and Hawisia de

Clavering (her mother) relative to the manor of Clavering ; P and
the inquisition taken after her death, which did not happen till
43 Edw. III., calls her theii the wife of Robert Benhale, and
says she had been first married to Thomas de Audeleghe : q now
Sir Ilalph de Ufford died a". 20 Edw. III, four years after the
fine. This, I conceive, puts the supposed marriage with Ufford
out of all probabiUty. >"
It docs not appear that she had any issue by Benhale, and the
inquisition states that James Lord Audley was the heir of her
first husband. I am therefore of opinion that she had only those
two husbands, Thomas de Audelegh and Robert de Benhale, and
that she died widiout issue by either.

Make a note at fhe end, viz.
There was a WiUiam de Rye summoned to Parliament a». 22

The Barony of Percy began by writ of summons to ParUa-

mons,) and it continued regularly to descend through several
generations tiU the reign of Richard II. when Henry Percy,
P Fin. 16. Edw. III. i Esc. 45 Edw. III.
' Mr. Townsend was erroneously impressed here in considering it was Sir
Ralph Ufford ; he subsequently, however, found evidence of the mistake, as ap-
pears in another place. She married Thomas de Ufford, and not Ralph de Ufford,

(though not without some temporary interruptions) the Earl-

Upon his death, leaving no issue himself, the descent of these
titles was stopped in its regular course by the unfortunate cir-
cumstance of the recent attainder and execution of his next bro-
ther Thomas ; and thus they became extinct, or rather forfeited
to the Crown, and so remained for twenty years, when by the
favour of Queen Mary the Earldom of Northumberland and
the Barony of Percy were restored to his nephew Thomas, the
eldest son of his attainted brother, in a sort of qualified way,
viz. by letters patent dated 30 Apr. a^. 1557, he was created a
Baron of Parliament by the title of Baron Percy, with place and
voice in Parliament (without mention of the ancient place,) to
liold to him and the heirs male of his body, and for default of
such issue, and after his death, Henry Percy his brother and
the heirs male of the body of the said Henry should be Baron and
Barons Percy. And by other letters patent dated the day fol-
lowing, he was, by thetitle of Baron Percy, and in consideration
that his ancestors " ab antiquo de tempore in tempus " had been
Earls of Northumberland, further created Earl of Northumber-
land to him and the heirs male of his body, with like remainder
to his brother Henry and the heirs male of his body, with an
especial clause granting the ancient place of the Earldom as it
had been held by his ancestors.
This appears to have been a perfect restitution of the Earldom
as to Thomas and Henry, but not extending any further than
to the heirs male oftheir bodies.
* See vol. VI. pp. 266 — 283, for an account of the claim of James Percy, as de-
scended from this Ingeb-am, to the Earldom of Northumberland in 1670, and which
he continued to urge for maoy years, as also a pedigree of the male descendants of
the first Earl.

With respect to the Barony it was no further a restitution
than as it gave the same title ; for, as to place, precedence, and
inheritance it was to all intents and purposes a new Barony, with
place and precedence only according lo the date of the patent,
and with a liniitation of the inheritance to the heirs male de-
scended of their two bodies only.
Thomas thus restored was for some time in favour with Queen
Elizabeth, who made him a Knight of the Garter in 1563 ; but,
joining in rebellion with Charles Earl of Westmorland, he was
degraded of the Order in 1569, attainted by Parliament in 1571,
and beheaded at York in 1572.
His issue was only four daughters, who could not have in-
herited his honours even if he had not been attainted, as they
were expressly limited to the heirs male of his body with re-
mainder to his brother Henry and the heirs male of his body.
Henry accordingly succeeded to the Earldom.

John St. Aubyn, daughter of his eldest sister Johanna (whose
husband's name is not known) and John Cole, Esq. son of his
other sister Margaret, were found to be his cousins and next
heirs. It does not appear how Thomas, the husband of his
niece, was related to him. He made a settlement of all his
estates (except IVegony.e which he gave in his lifetime to Ed-
ward Pomeray and Margaret liis wife and the heirs male of the
body of Edward, to hold of him and Joan his wife, and of his
heirs for ever), upon himself and his wife and the heirs of their
bodies, with remainder to his own right heirs. Sir Thomas
l^omeray in right of Joan his wife, and John Cole, Esq. in his
own right, divided those estates, assigning dower to the widow.f
It seems Cole died shortly after witiiout issue, for, upon the
death of the said Joan wife of Sir Thomas Pomeray, it was
found that she died on 8th December, 2Hen. VI.& seised of
the manors of Birie and Stokesley Pomeray, and a moiety of
the manors of Brixham and Herburton, and that Edward Pome-
ray, Esq. had been in receipt of the rents and profits from the
time of her death, but by what right the jurors knew not : that
Joan, wife of Otes Bodrugan, and Margaret, wife of Reginald
Trethurf, daughters of Sir John St. Aubyn, her son by a former
husband, were her next heirs.
This Edward Pomeray was the son of Thomas Pomeray, per-
haps the Sir Thomas above mentioned, but certainly the Thomas
who is named as the youngest son of Henry, who died in 41
Edvv. HI. ; for, in the inquisition taken after his death, it was
found that he held the manor of Stokesley Pomeray and other
lands in fee tail, by gift of Nicholas de Wedesgrave and others
to Thomas de la Pomeray his father in a». 3 Edw. III. (which is
the settlement from whence the names of those younger sons
were taken). He, Edward, married before 10 Kic. II. to Mar-
garet daughter of John Bevill, Esq. '> In 13 Hen. VI. he set-
tled the manor of Birie Pomeray upon himself and the said
Margaret his wife, and the lieirs male of their bodies, remainder
to his own heirs male, remainder to his right heirs, and died so
seised on 3rd May, a». 24 Hen. VI. Jeaving Henry his son and

Sheriff of Middlesex distrained for the debt upon his lands.
He represented his situation to the King, stating his having
purchased the grant from Pontius, that he was still a minor,
and should come of age in little more than a year, and that it
was not the custom to distrain upon heirs in ward before they

to state the descent in my own way.
The inquisition referred to, taken after his death in the 33rd
of Edw. III. shews that William was his son and heir of the age
of nineteen years. His daughters are not mentioned in that
record, but they appear in a subsequent one ; and, as tlieir pos-
terity at length became coheirs of this Barony, I postpone the
account of their marriage and issue until I come to that subse-
quent record of the 6th of Hen. IV. at which period, by the
extinction of their brother^s line, the Barony fell into abeyance
between the heirs of their respective bodies.
Besides William, the eldest son, he had two others, Thomas
and John ; ^ of Thomas I know no more than that he was living
at the time of his father's death, and dead before 6 Ric' II. for
in that year his brother John obtained livery of the manor of
Hammes in Sussex (under an entail), in the character of heir
male of the body of their father and mother, upon the death of
their elder brother's son. ^ This John must also have been dead
before the 6th of Henry the Fourth, and all issue male and fe-
male either from him or Thomas extinct, to make way for the
inheritance to pass to the heirs of the sisters. Having thus dis-
posed of the younger sons, I resume the account of
William the eldest. He came of age and made proof
thereof in the 35th of Edw. III. and vvas found to be heir
to his mother at her deaih, wliich happened in tlie 43rd. He
was regularly summoned to Parhament from the 36th of Edw.
III. till his death in the 49th. ' His wife was Beatrix sister of
Thomasde Brewose, chevalier; and upon failureofher brother's

biiry, co. Gloucester, with other lands, came to Elizabeth
Heron lier daughter, and at that time sole heir. By this lady,
who survived him, he had issue John his son and heir, only two
years of age, and a daughter named Elizabeth.
John the son died a minor not more than ten years of age,
and in ward to the King, on the 2Tth of July, in the 6th of
Richard II., and his sister EHzabeth was fuund to be his heir,
sixteen years old and upwards.™
What follows appears to me, from its singular curiosity, to
deserve particular notice.
Shortly after the death of her brother this EHzabeth became
the wife of Sir John de Falvesle, a kniglit of Northamptonshire,
who immediately applied for Hvery in her right, she being of
fuli age, of all the lands of her inheritance ; which lands had,
according to the feudal system, by reason of the death of her
father and the minority of his heir her late brother, been seized
into the King's hands, and so remained at the time of the appli-
cation.'' He was answered, that it was one of the King's prero-
gatives that ah women who held of the King in chief, whatever
their age might be, were bound to make oath that they would
iiot marry until they had obtained his licence ; and that if they
did so marry without his licence, their lands and tenements
should be seized into the King's hands until they made satis-
faction " ad voluntatem Domini Regis," and, therefore, as the
said Elizabeth had married herself to the said John after her
brother's death without the King's Hcence, they were bound to
make satisfaction for such transgression before they could obtain
Hvery. He persisted in his demand, however, and the matter
was brought to a discussion before the King and his great
Council, o " in pleno Parliamento suo tento apud Westin in
octabis Scti Michaelis, a». regni sui sexto." In which Parlia-
ment the petition of the said John and Elizabeth was read ; and
after the Parliament was ended, " in magno Concilio dicti dni
Regis, assistentibus " John King of Castille, William Arch-
bishop of Canterbury, Robert Bishop of London, the Chancellor,
the Bishops of Winchester, Ely, Durham, Lincoln, Norwich,
Exeter, Hereford, and Sarum ; the Abbat of Waltham Holy
Cross, " et aliis prelatis ac etiam Comitibus et aliis magnatibus
et proceribus regni," together with the Judges and Serjeants at
Law and many other learned Counsel ; and the said article of
■ Esc. 6 Ric. II. » Rot. Claus. 6 Ric. II. m. 12 d. ° Ibid.

prerogative was read and debated, and a question was put by ihe
said Prelates, Earls, and Peers to the said Justices, Serjeants,
&c. " Utrum praedictus articulus pro lege haberi et teneri debe-
ret aut consuevit? " They answer, " Quod praedicta Prerogativa
non tenetur pro Statuto, et quod dictus articulus hactenus non
extitit observatus;" and that by such marriage after the death
of her brother (whose heir she was) without the King's licence
she had not committed any ofFence for which she was bound to
make satisfaction, or for which her lands ought to be detained
in the King's hands. Whereupon it was ordered that livery
should be granted from the day on which the application was
first made.
As soon as this decision had taken place, a writ of summons
was issued to the very man who had thus maintained a suit
against the Prerogative of the Crown. It does not appear that
he ever had any issue by this Elizabeth ; yet he continued to be
summoned to Parliament as long as he lived, viz. till 16 Ric. II.
Upon his deathP she married to her second husband Sir WiUiam
Heron, who was the very next year surnmoned to Parhament
and continued to be so summoned till the 5th of Hen. IV.
although she had died in the 23rd of Ric. II. and it does not
any where appear that he, any more than Falwesle, ever had
any issue by her. I am not aware that either of her husbands
is described in any of the writs of summons as Lord Say, and
therefore some doubt may possibly arise upon that ground as to
their having derived that honour through her. But this doubt
must be removed by what foUows : I have seen a deed of her
first husband's which clears up that point with respect to him.
It begins thus : " Sciant, &.c. quod Ego Johes Falwesle chivaler
et Dominus de Say dedi, &c. Johi Waltham Custodi privati
sigilii, &c. manerium meum de Falwesle, &c. Dat. apud Lon-
don, 1° die Martii a^. r. R. Ricardi Secundi post conq. 10","
&c. Her second husband Heron was Steward of the King's
Household q9. 4 Hen. IV. by the title of Lord Say. A circum-
stance which still further confirms the supposition that the two
husbands of this EHzabeth owed their respective summonses to
Parliament to their marriage with her is, that neither of them
ever had summons previous to such marriage.

The story of this lady fumishes more matter towards explain-
ing the notions which prevailed about ihe latter end of the 14th
and the beginning of the 15th centuries than any other that I
recollect to have inet with, and therefore I have dwelt upon it
with particular attention.
Her father was the heir of a long line of ancestors who had
been summoned to Parliament by writ with as much regularity
as can be shewn in most ancient Baronies, and so may be con-
sidered as the heir of and as possessing a Barony by writ, but
the lands he inherited were some of them held " per Baroniam,**
others " sicut Baro," so that he may also be said to have been
heir of a Barony by Tenure, and upon that ground perhaps a
question may fairly arise, whether the circumstances that at-
tended his dau2:hter's inheritance are to be attributed to the
Barony by Writ or the Barony by Tenure, or to the compound
of both. It iscertain that her first husband Falvesle was sum-
n)oned to the very first Parliament after the legality of his mar-
riage had been allowed. It is also certain that he had not been
admitted to the enjoyment of her lands till after a successful
contest maintained against an aileged prerogative of the Crown ;
and it seems reasonable to suppose that the immediate calling
him to Parliament was not a matter of spontaneous favour, but
that as her husband he had a right to a writ. He died and she
married again, and her second husband Sir William Heron
was also immediately summoned, and continued to be summoned
as long as she lived. So far all this may be applicable to a mere
Barony by writ: but this second husband continued to be sum-
moned after her death, and is called Lord Say ; and it turns out
upon investigation that the principal lands of her inheritance
had been settled by fine upon her said second husband and her
for their respective lives, with remainder to the heire of their
two bodies, remainder to her right heirs, and so he became te-
nant for life after her death. Here are two circumstances com-
bined, his enjoyment of her lands and his sitting in Parliament
after her death ; and 1 must own that they appear to me to
connect so closely as that I cannot help suspecting that if the
lands had not been so settled, but had remained as her paternal
inheritance, they would have passed away upon her death
without issue in the 23rd of Ric. II. to her heirs at law, and
no more writs of summons would have issued to her surviving
husband.
62 ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE.
She diedon the 8th of July a°. 23 Ilic. II. yet no inquisition
appears to have been taken ; but her inheritance remained quietly
in the possession of her surviving husband until his death in the
6th of Hen. IV. and then the jury return,
William de Clynton, chev'".
Mary, wife of Otho de Worthington,
Maud, sister of the said Mary, and
Roger de Fienles,
to be her cousins and next heirs in the following manner, viz.
The said William de Clinton, Chevr. as son of Sir William
de Clinton, Knt. son of Sir John de Clynton, Knt. by Idonea
his wife, eldest daughter of GefFrey de Say and aunt of the said
EHzabeth Heron.
The said Mary Worthington and Maud her sister as daugh-
ters of Sir Thomas de Aldon, Knt. by Elizabeth his wife, second
daughter of the said GefFrey and aunt of the said Elizabeth
Heron.
The said Roger de Fienles, as son of Sir William de Fienles,
Knt. son of another Sir William by Joan his wife, third daugh-
ter of said Geffrey and aunt of the said Elizabeth.
So the Barony fell into abeyance amongst these four coheirs.
Afterwards Mary Worthington and her sister (who was mar-
ried to fsic) ) both died without issue, P and the abeyance
rested between Clinton and Fienles.
William de Clinton was a Peer already; he died in a». 10
Hen. VI. leaving John his son and heir 22 years old.
Roger de Fienles married and had issue Richard, who ob-
tained the Barony of Dacres of the South by marriage, and
transmitted it to his posterity, where it remains to this day.
This Roger had a younger brother named James, who was
Esquire of the Body to tlie King, and afterwards a Knight, and
in 24 Hen. VI. advanced to the office of Chamberlain to Queen
Margaret, with a salary of forty pounds per annum, by lettere
under her great seal dated the 7th of June in that year.
In the year following, on the 5tli day of March, he was created
a Baron of the Kingdom of England, in presence of ihe three
estates of the realm in Parliament assembled at Bury St. Ed-
mond's, and with the assent of the Lords Spiritual and Tem-

transaction appean» upon the Rolls of Parliament, but the whole
is recited at large and exemplified by a patent under the great

dignity. He was summoned by the same title to the foUowing
Parliaments of 27 and 28 Hen. VI. ; in which latter year, on the
4th of July, he was unfortunately taken by the rebels under
Cade, and by them beheaded.
It has been aheady noticed that there was no estate of inhe-
ritance in the title of Say and Sele granted by the letters patent.
After the death of the person who had been so created, I find
his son and heir Wilham summoned to the next Parliament and
to all subsequent Parliaments during his Hfe, not by the title of
Say and Sele, as his father had been, but by the title of Say only,
as if he had become sole heir of that ancient Barony, notwith-
standing that the line of his father's elder brother, as well as
that of Clinton, was still in existence : and I think it will appear,
from the evidence which I am about to state, that this William
was at that time considered to be legally possessed of that dig-
nity. I therefore deemed it proper to proceed in the manner
I have done in order to bring that evidence forward.
A short time before the death of Sir James Fenys (Fienles),
who had been, as above mentioned, created Lord Say and Sele,
an agreement appears to have been entered into between him
and his cousin John Lord Clinton for the purpose of putting
him in possession of the ancient title of Lord Say ; for, by a
deed dated Ist Nov. 27 Hen. VI. John Lord Clinton " gives,
grants, ratifies, and confirms to the said James Lord Say and
Sele his cousin, his heirs and assigns for ever, the name and
title of Lord Say, relinquishing all interest therein, as well as

executed an indenture by which, after reciting tlie above men-
tioned deed, Fienles renounces all pretensions to " all advow-
sons, knight's-fees, wardships, marriages, reliefs, escheats, renis,
services, and forfeitures, which by reason of the said Lordship
[ratione Dominii) of Say had belonged to Clinton before the
date of his release, or might in future devolve upon him or his
heirs."
The death of Fienes happened soon after, and it may admit
of great doubt whether the title of Say and Sele did not become
extinct upon his death. Had there been nothing but the writ
of summons in proof of the title, that writ would have operated
in the usual way and created an estate of inheritance to the
heirs of his body, but hei-e was a formal ceremonious crealion in
pleno Parliamento, accompanied by letters patent, in which, as I
have said before, there is not a word about heirs of any descrip-
tion. But, however that may be, it is certain that when he died
he was considered to be Lord Say. An inquisition post mortem
in Surrey, another in Sussex, another in Kent, another in Mid-
dlesex, and another at Bristol, all describe him " Jacobus Fenys
miles Dominus de Say," or " Jacobus Dns de Say miles." It
is certain too that after his death none of his posterity ever re-
ceived a summons to Parliament by the title of Say and Sele till
after a new patent was obtained from King James the First,
and then, though the patent recognised and confirmed the de-
scent from Sir James to the grantee, it expressly limited the
rank to the date of this new creation.
From these transactions between Clinton and Fienes, and the
subsequent conduct of the Crown, I think these inferences may
be drawn :
That Clinton, as representative of the eldest coheir, was con-
sidered as having the principal if not the exclusive claim to
the dignity of Say.
That all advowsons, knight's-fees, wardships, marriages, re-
liefs, escheats, rents, services, and forfeiiures, were considered
as attendant upon the dignity, or as it is called in the deed tlie
** Dominium de Say."
That it was competent in law to a coheir of a Barony, situ-
ated as Clinton was with respect to Say, to convey all his right
and interest, not only to any other coheir, but even to a per-

son who had no present interest in the dignity, provided that
person were lineally descended from the immediate common
ancestor of the coheirs, and perhaps to any other person not so
qualified, for Ciinton's conveyance is not only to Fienes and
his heirs, but to Fienes and his heirs and asnigns. If Ciinton
could give such a right of assignment to Fienes he must have
possessed it himself. The former part of the inference has been
proved ; the latter certainly has not ; but it has also not come
into question, and the deed, as far as it goes, proves that Clin-
ton thought himself, and was considered to be, possessed oi
such a right.

Edward, son and heir, was only one year old when his father died, anno 1501.
His wardship was given to Sir Thomas Brandon, Knt. who in his will, dated 1 1
January 1509, says, " I will that the marriage of the Lord Say, whose wardship
I have, shall remain to Charles Brandon during the Lord Say's nonage." This is
most indisputable proof of his being considered as Lord Say at that time. (Yinc.

Ao. 2 Edw. II. Peter Corbet, son and heir of Peter Corbet,
gives the King 100 marl<s for his relief of all the hmds and
tenements which his father held in capite, on tlie day of his
death, of King Edward I. It appears in the Great RoU of
12 Edw. I. in Salop that said Peter Corbet the father was
charged with 100 pounds for his relief upon the death of
Thomas his father, one hundred pounds being at that time the
usual relief for a Barony, but now, on reference to Magna
Carta, it was ordered that no more than 100 marlcs should be
paid. r
These two Peters were regularly summoned to Parliament
from 22 Edw. I. to 15 Edw. II. when the last Peter died with-
out issue, and the Barony fell into abeyance between Stafford,
Harley, and Cornwall.* StafFord was already a Baron ;
neither Harley nor Cornwall was ever summoned.

HiLTON, 23 Edw. I.— Vol. II. p. 6.
In the 23rd, 24ih, and 25th of Edw. I. Robert de Hilton of
Hilton in the county Palatine of Durham had summons to Par-
liament amongst the Barons of this realm.* And in the 4th of
Edw. II. was in the expedition ihen made into Scotland." This
Robert married Margaret, one of the three daughters of Marma-
duke de Thwenge, by whom he had issue two daughters, his co-
heirs ; Isabella, wife of Sir Walter Pedwardyn, knt. ; and Maud,
married to Sir John Hotham, Knt. ; * and upon the death of
Thomas Thwenge, the last surviving brother of the said Mar-
garet, it was found that the said Isabella Pedwardyn and John
Hotham, son of the said Maud, were amongst the coheirs of
Thwenge as representatives of the said Margaret.
From Isabella de Pedwardyn descended Sir Robert her son
and heir : Sir Robert married Elizabeth daughter of Sir
Edmund Pierrepoint, and had issue Walter Pedwardyn, Esq.
who died a9. 9 Hen. VI. ieaving issue by Katharine his wife,
daughter of Sir John Ingilby, of Ripley, in the county of York,
Knt. R(^er his son and heir, Thomas who died without issue,
and four daughters. Roger Pedwardyn had two sons, Christo-
pher and Peter, who both died minors, and in ward to Sir John
Hussey of Sleaford. The issue male of Isabella Pedwardyn thus
failing, the four daughters of Walter Pedwardyn above men-
tioned, viz. 1. Anne, 2. Joan, 3. Katharine, and 4. Margaret,
became her heirs.
I. Anne married John Quickerell of Boston, in the county of
Lincoln, and left a numerous issue.
II. Joan died without issue.
III. Katharine, married first to Nicholas Dene of Barrowby in
the county of Lincoln ; y and secondly, to David Sitsilt or Cecil,
grandfather of Lord Burghley. By the second she had no
children ; but by the first she had a son named James Dene,
whose only daughter and heir Thomasine was twice married ;
first to Sir Richard Bozon, Knt. who died on the 18th of Aug.
ao. 16 Hen. VIII. and by whom she had five daughters; ' and

secondly to William Vernon, by whom she had an only daugh-
ter. The five daughters by the first husband (Dene) were,
1. Amia, married first to Henry Babington, and secondly to
Francis Moore.
2. Mary, wife of John Worsley.
3. Margaret, wife of Richard Clopton, of Groton in Suffolk,^
Esq. by whom she had only a daughter named Mary, who mar-
ried to Sir William Cordall, Knt. Master of the Rolls, who I
believe died s. p.
4. Alice, wife of George Poole ; and
5. Eh'zabeth, married to Sir Richard Paynell, of Boothby in
the county of Lincoln, Knt. ^ by whom she had two sons, Fran-
cis and Richard, who were Hving in 1562.
6. The daughter by the second marriage was Joan, who was
second wife to Henry Saville of Lupset, in the county of York,
Esq. Her lineal descendant and heir was William Saville,
Marquis of Halifax, who left three daughters and coheirs, viz.
L Anne, wife of Charles Bruce, Earl of Ailesbury, whose
sole heir atpresent (1807) is the RightHonourable Lady Temple,
daughter and heir of the late Duke of Chandos.
2. Dorothy, wife of Richard Boyle, Earl of Burlington, whose
Iieir is the present Duke of Devonshire ; and
3. Mary, wife of Sackville Tufton, Earl of Thanet, and grand.
mother of the present Earl. (1807.)
IV. Margaret, the fourth daughter of Walter Pedwardyn,
as above mentioned, became the wife of Alexander Leeke, son of
Matthew Leeke, of Leeke, co. Lincoln : whether there was any
issue of this marriage or not, I cannot say at present.
I now return to Maud, the second of the daughters and co-
lieirs of Robert de Hilton, and wife of Sir John Hotham, Knt.
From her there was a regular descent of seven generations ali of
the name of John, and all except one knights. Sir John Ho-
tham, the last of the seven, was succeeded by Sir Francis his
son and heir, whose grandson and heir Sir John Hotham was
created a Baronet a°. 19 James L and was twice married. His
grandson and heir had two sons and two daughters. The sons
were Sir John who succeeded him in the Baronetage, and Ro-

MEMORIALS OF THE FAMILY OF STUMPE, OF MALMESBURY,
The following is a passage of Le1and'8 Itinerary : " Thc hole
l(^ginges of th' abbay [of Malmesbyri] be now longging to one Stumpe,
an exceeding riche clothiar that boute them of the King. This
Stumpe'8 sonne hath maried Sir Edward Baynton's doughter.
" This Stumpe was the chef causer and contributor to have th'abbay
chirch made a paroch chirch.
" At this present tyme every corner of the vaste houses of ofBce
that beloDgid toth'abbay be fulle of lumbes [looms] to weve clooth yn,
and this Stumpe entendith to make a stret or 2 for clothiers in the
vacant groand of the abbay that is withyn the towne wauUes. There
be made now every yere in the towne a 3000 clothes." (Itin. vol. ii.
fol. 27.)
From a previous passage it appears that even a portion of the charch
WM then filled with looms j namely, that ancient portion which was
considered a separate " little church joining to the soath side of the
iranseptum of tli' abbay chirch."
The abbey of Malmesbur)- was purchased by William Stnmpe of tlie
Crown in 31 Hen. VIII for 1500/. 2*. 0|rf. »
A grant from Hen. VIII. to Wm. Stumpe dated 20 Nov 36 Hen.VIII.
(1545) is preserved in the Earl of Snffolk's Record-room at Charlton.
Fuller in his Worthies of England, under Wiltshire, notices Stumpe "
as a benefactor to the pablic (in procuring the abbey church for the
parish). " He was (he says) in his age one of the most eraineut
Clothiers in England ; of whom there passeth a story told with some
variation of circumstances. but generally to this purpose. King Henry
the Eighth, hunting near Malmesbury in Bredon Forest, came with all
his Court Train, unexpected, to dine with this Clothier. Bnt great
housekeepers are as seldome surprised with guests as vigilant captains
with enemies. Stump commands his little army of workmen, which he
fed daily in his house, to fast oue meal untill night (which they might
easily doe without endangering their health)^ and with the same provi-

the unsettled state of the times, was or was not taken out. It is clear that the
warrant for the appointment received the royal sign manual, and I apprehend the
patent was completed, for in a letter dated Aug. 16, 1645, hereinafter inserted, he
is addressed as Sir Thomas Edwards. He had to compound for his loyalty by
payment of 2060/. In Dring's Catalogue he is only entitled Esq. but so also is

formerly did, and now earnestly doe require, that this levie

now much exhausted, is heavilie charged with the pay of many
supernumerarie officers, whose companies are much weakened,
and some of them almost exiinct, it is their humble desire,
that His Highnesse will be pleased to provide for the moderat-

disposing those officers, and reduction of their commaunds :
These things, S*", they doe by me recommend respectively unto
yo' sollicitation, that his Highnesse may be moved both to
declare, what his pleasure is concerning ihat proposition of

cond desire, that the counties charge may be eased, and their
chearefullnesse in the service thereby increased ; you may fur-

munity. It surrounds three sides of a court ; on the south of which is
the chapel, with the library above it ; on the north the refectory and
part of the students' rooms ; on the west are the president's lodgings,
the rooms of the professors, the lecture rooms, and the chambers of
the major part of the students. The eastern side is open, the ground
being there planted with a grove of chesnut trees. The buildings date
about ten years previous to the Revolution, the college having been at
that time transferred from the CoUege des Lombards in the Rue des
Carmes, in order to aliow of more extensive accommodation being giveu
to its increasing numbers.
The history o£ this foundation is not without interest. The College
des Lombards was founded in 1330 by four Italians, — Andreas Chini,
a native of Florence, and successively Bishop of Arras and Tournay,
after having been Chaplain to Charles the Fair, and ultimately Cardi-
nal ; Francisco de THospital, a burgess of Modena, and Chaplain or
clerk of the King's Arbaletriers, or crossbow men ; Rinaldo Giovanni,
burgess of Pistoija, and apothecary at Paris ; and Manuel Rolandi of
Piacenza, Canon of St. Marcel of Paris, — all fonr resident at that time
in the French capital. Their joint foundation consisted of eleven Bur-
sarships for as many poor scholars, natives of those cities to which
the founders owed their births, and who wcre not to bc possessed of
more than twenty livres Parisis of yearly revenue. The Bishop of
Arras founded four of these Bursarships, the burgess of Modena three,
the burgess of Pistoija three, and the Canon of St. Marcel one. The
yearly value of each of their bursarships was fourteen florins ; and the
Bishop addcd to his gift the liberal donation of the house itself in
which he had iirst established thcm iu the Ruc St. Hiiaire, afterwards
112 SEPULCHRAL INSCRIPTIONS IN
called the Rue des Carmes froin the Convent situated at its foot. * The
name given to this college was " La Maison des Pauvres Ecoliers Ita-
liens de la Charite de la bienheureuse Marie;" and for the government
of the society three provisors or directors were appointed, who were
three clerks, resident at Paris, one a native of Tuscany, another of
Lomhardy, and the third of the Campagna di Roma ; the chancelior of
the cathedral church of Paris and the abbot of St. Victor were also
named perpetual visitors and protectors of the college.
It seems, according to Felibien and Lobineau, that various bursar-
ships for Spanish students were afterwards added to this foundation ;
but we have no very positive information on the subject. The college
itself in lapse of time declined, and fell into a state of premature disso-
lution, 80 much so that in 1677 two Irish clergyraen of distinguishcd
attainments and indefatigable activity, Drs. Patrick Maginn and Ma-
lachy Kelly, obtaiued letters patent from Louis XIV. for appropriating
the college to the education of priests for Ireland, and for Catholic
tnissionaries to any part of the three kingdoms. Immediately on these
being granted they laid the first stone of a new building, and under
their anspices, aided by the liberality of their fellow countrymen, the
college rapidly rose to a state of high prosperity.
William Postel lectured for some time in this college, and with so
much success, that the hall of the Society was insufficient to accom-
modate the auditory, and he used accordingly to lecture frora one of
the windows of the building, while the studcnts and other auditors
filled the quadrangle below. In 1763, the number of students of all
ranks in tliis college was 165, and in 1779 the number of priests resi-
dent in it was one hundred, of students sixty ; raost of the latter being
supported by bursarships, and the rest paying only a very moderate
sura for their raaintenance to the Society. The chapel had beeu built
by the Abbe de Vaubrun, after the designs of Bosery ; it is a small but
elegant erection of the lonic order ; the rest of the edifice is of the sarae
plain and massivc style which prevails in all tlie Parisian colleges of the
same date. At this period it was judged advisable to trausfer the
Society to a raore spacious building in the Rue du Cheval-vcrt ; and it
was raoved accordingly. Upon this occasion all the raonumental in-
scriptions were transported from the old chapel to that in the new
buildings, and the ancient edifice was given over, very injudiciously we
think, to secular purposes. ^ 1 he CoUcge has a couutry bouse at Arcueil.
* The site f this coDvent is now occupied by the March6 des Carmes : one side
of which is still formed by the CoUege de St. Jean de Beauvais.
*> The old chapel of the CoUege des Lombards still exists, the property belong-
ing to thc present Irish Society ; and io the vaults underoeath it some inscriptiom
remain, but they are closed up and are thcrefore iuacces»ible.
THE IRISH COLLEGE AT PARIS. 113
Both the foundation and the buildings, old and new, have sumved
the Revolution ; all and each are now as flourishing as at the first day
of tbeir institution. This is to be attrihuted to the numbers of Irish
ecclesiastical students contiuually flocking to the continent, and who
have naturally h\ed themselves at Paris, the seat of so much learning
and science, even in the most calamitous periods of its history. The
greater part of the property of the Irish CoIIege was restored to it by
Napoleou, and is now enjoyed by it, subject to the control of the state.
Tlie present Society consists of a President (the Rev. Dr. M<^Sweeny)
and four Professors, of Dogmatic Theology, Morality, Philosophy, and
Humanity, with a bursar.
The number of students is about ninety, by far the major part of
whom enjoy good bursarships ; while the number of priests sent out
by the CoIIege every year is abont twenty.
We have only to add, that this Institution stands high in the estima-
tion of the Catholic world for the learning of its President and Profes-
sors, and for the good services done to religion and learning by tbe
many distinguished men who have been educated within its walls.
The collegiate dress of the members of the Society, the only remnant
of such a custom among the old coUeges of Paris, is a black cassock, of
cloth or serge ; and a square-topped Roman cap, without a tassel, but
with three rays extending to as many corners of it, the fourth ray being
wanting, probably in some allusiou to the ecclesiastical value of the
trinary number ; each member wears at the neck black bands with
white borders.
The college itself, and also the chapel, are under the invocation of the
Virgin Mary.e In the latter, and in its vestibule, are several monu-
mental inscriptions, copies of which will be found below ; and most of
which were origiually placed in the chapel of the CoIIege des Lombards.
They are all on slabs affixed to the walls.
At the time of the Revolution this edifice did not escape profanation ;
and even after the reign of terror the votaries of Terpsichore moved on
" the light fantastic toe " within the grave walls of this seat of study.
It is now the abode of learned and pious men, as it was originally in-
tended to be, but its refectory is always open to the Hibernian eccle-
siastical traveller, and the hospitality of the Rev. Principal and Pro-
fessors towards British visitors of the Frcnch capital is well-known.and
gratefuily appreciated.
It is not aninteresting to add, that the body of James II. was brought
to tbis college after the destruction of the Englbh Benedictine monas-
» The inscription over the gateway of the College des Lombards was " Colle-
ginm Beatje Maris Virginis, pro Clericis Hibemis in AcademiA Parisiensi studen-
tibas, instaoratom anno I68I, pro Italis fundatum anno 1330."

tery adjoining thc Val de Grace, and remaincd for some years in a tem-
porary tomb in one of the lecturc halls, then used as the chapel. It
was afterwards removcd, by whose authority, and to what place, is not
exactly known : but it is considered not improbable that it was trans-
ported to the church of St. Germain-en-Laye, and there buried, under
the monument erected by George IV. d
The following inscriptions are exact copies of the originals, most of
which are in gold letters on black marble tablets afBxed to the walJs of
the edifice, above the seats of the members of the Society, Nos. 1 to
4 inclusive, are on the south side, reckoning from the east to the west ;
Nos. 5 to 7 inclusive, are on the north side, reckoning from west to
east 3 the remainder are on the southern side of the entrance door in
the vestibule.

MUSTER ROLL FOR THE RAPE OF HASTINGS, 13 EDW. III.
The foUowing Roll of "armed men" is transcribed fromaMS. in the
College of Arms, marked L. 17, written about the time of King James
the First, apparently extracted from a cartulary of Battle Abbey. Being
describcd as takcn from " the first book," the cartulary was in all
probability that in two volumes, which formerly belonged to the Web-
STEBS of Battle Abbcy, and was a short time sincc purchased by Sir
Thomas Phillipps, of Middle Hill, Bart. A Commission for an array
of men throughout the several counties of England, was issued 13
Edw. III. (1339-40), the country being then threatened with foreign
invasion, a The writ for the county of Sussex was directed to Robert Bi-
shop of Chichester, John de Warren Earl of Surrey, Richard Earl of
Arundel, Henry Husee, Thomas de Brewosa, and Edward de St. John
Ihe uncle, who were directed to elect from that county 50 men at arms,
200 armed men, and 200 archers ; it is presumed that the following
Roll was returned to the Commissioners as containing the names of all
the individuals within the Rape of Hastings liable to serve the King in
his wars, and that from this number the Commissioners were em-
powered to choose the quota of men for the Rape, whom the King re-
quired for his immediate service.
Any inaccuracies which may occur in the spelling of the names, arise
from the MS. having been strictly followed.

TIONS OF FRANCIS TOWNSEND, ESQ. WINDSOR HERALO.
{Continued Jrom p. 69.)
Earl of Arundel and Shrewsbury. — Vol. I. p. 26.
Page 28, line 6, after " Monastery." In the last Heraldic
Visitation of Shropshire made by Sir William Dugdale in 1663,»
it appears that at the east end of the south aisle of the abbey
church, Shrewsbury, there remained a large figure of a man in
armour of mail and cross-legged, with a surcoat over his mail,
close girded to him with a belt, his right hand drawiiig his
sword, and his left holding the scabbard. On his left side a
large shield, and at his feet a lion. Upon the wall, over this
figure, was the foUowing inscription : " This figure, being found
amongst the ancient ruins of the monastery of St. Peter and St.
Paul, which was there placed in remembrance of Roger de
Montgomery, sometimes Earl of Shrewsbury, was, by directions
of his Maj^sty's Heralds of Arms, in their Visitation of this
County aP. 1623, brought into this place, to remain in perpetual
memory of the said right noble Founder." ^
Earls of Chester. — Vol. I. p. 32.
P. 36b, 1. 21, after " County." In the 6th year of King
Henry the First, a». 1106, he and his mother Ermentruda
granted to the church of Abingdon that the hide of land which
Dru de Audele had given to it, and which was in a place called
Udemundesley, should be held by thesaid churchyree ofall ser-
vice. And the grant concludes thus : " Hoc autem fecimus testi-
monio nro^ Baronum, scilicet Witti fit Nigelli et Hugonis filii
Normanni et Richardi Balaste et Witti filii Anskitilli et Richardi
filii Nigelli et Drii Goisfridi Capellani et aliorum."*^

** Sach was the preTailing account until the pnblication of the History of Lacock
Abbey, 8vo. 1835 ; but in the history of the house of Romara given in that work,
it has been shown to be most probable that there were two heiresses named Lucia,
the former the daughter of Algar Earl of Chester (and sister to Edgiva Queen of
Harold), married to Yvo Tailbois ; and the second, liis daughter, married first to
Robert (not Roger) Fitz Girold, by whom she was mother of William de Romara,
Earl of Lincoln, and of Rohais wife of Gilbert de Gant, Earl of Lincoln ; and se-
condly to Ranulph de BayeiLx, Earl of Chester, by wliom she was mother of Ra-
nulph II. Earl of Chester, and other children mentioned by Dugdale. — Edit.

In the foundation charter of Lewes Priory is this passage:

meee et pro anima dni mei Willielmi Ilegis qui me in Anglicam
terram adduxit, et per cujus licenciam Monachos venire feci,
et qui meam priorem donationem confirmavit, et pro salute

William the Conqueror a°. 1066, and I do not find she had any
former husband.

quest of the said lands by the said Kiag. By virtue of which

1. 17^, make a note. Brooke, in his Catalogue of No-
bility, says this John Earl Warren married a second wife Joan,
daughter of William Lord Mowbray, and that from that mar-
riage the family of Warren of Poynton in Cheshire was de-
scended. This, however, is sufficiently disproved by Vin-
cent iii his corrections of that Catalogue, and I only mention it
here by way of caveat to that supposed descent, of which I know
there are many advocates, but no proofs.

one hundred lancemen and archers on his territories of Brora-
field and Yale.
■ 1. 34, a/ter " died," make a mfe. She (viz. Joan de
Bars) did certainly not die till sixteen years after this time, as
Dugdale himself states in the following page. Whether a di-
vorce had really taken place on account of her husband having
been previously contracted to Maud de Nerford,*» or whether (as
may be thought from his will) he really married Isabel de Hou-
land before the death of the lady in question, will be seen here-

pre>contract to Maud de Neirford, and his subsequent marriage, as also the de-
scent of the Warrens of Poynton, see a note written by Mr. Townsend, and printed

after ; this much is certain, that after the supposed divorce, and
the supposed second marriage, Joan de Bars is constantl y styled •
Countess of Warren or Countess of Surrey and Sussex. She is
considered as his wife in the inquisition taken after his death, ^
which states him to have died seised of the manor of Bokeland
in her right ; the register of Lewes names no other wife for him,
but takes notiee of this lady, and records the time of her death,
though she was not buried in England, in these words : —
" Dna Joha de Baars Comitissa Surr. filia

Ao grae m ccc lxi. non jacet in Angt."l
P. 82, 1. 3, after " them," ftote. This agreement made in the
month of June, though the terms were so advantageous to the
King, was annulled and cancelled in December following, about
six montlis before his death, upon a representation from the
Earl of Arundel that the same honours and lands had been
formerly surrendered by the same Earl to King Edward II. and
a settlement made thereof by ihe said King Edward II. upon
him the said John de Warren and Joan his wife, and the heirs
male of his body, and in case he should die without issue male,
remainder after his death and the death of his said wife, to Ed-
mund Earl of Arundel and Alicia his wife deceased, and to
Richard son of the said Earl of Arundel and Isabel then wife of
the said Richard, and to the heirs of the body of the said Richard
and Isabel, and in default of such issue of said Richard and Isa-
bel, remainder to the right heirs of him the said John de
Warren, Earl of Surrey. And the Patent states that the King,
not being fully instructedas to such settlement made byhis father,
had accepted the surrender of said honours, &c. to him and his
heirs, and settled the same on the said Earl of Surrey to hold to
him and the heirs of his body lawfully begotten, and for default
of such issue, remainder to the King and his heirs. And being
now satisfied therein, and considering that it became him rather
to enforce than infringe whatever his father had lawfully settled,
he resigns, annuls, and revokes entirely all that he himself had
received or done in the premises to the prejudice of the said
Earl of Arundel and the settlement made by his said father.

Souresby, Braythwell, Fysshelak, Dewesbury, and Halifax,
with their appuitenances, in the county of York, which the said
Earl of Surrey holds to him and the heirs of his body by the
grantof King Edward the Second, and which, after the death of
the said Earl, if he should die without heirs of his body, will
revert to the King and his heirs, should in that case go to
Isabella de Holland, daughter of Robert de Holland by Maud
his late wife, for the term ofher life, with remainderto the King
and his heirs, — he now retracts the said grant to the said Isa-
bella de Holland, even though the Earl of Surrey should have
attorned the said lands to her in consequence of it. This patent
is dated at Eltham, 12th Dec. in the 2()th year of King Ed-
ward III.,™ and though written within seven months of the
EarPs death, there is not a word in it about Isabella de HoUand
being his wife. In Originalia, 21 Edw. III. rot. 23, the King
commands his escheator to take security of Richard Earl of
Arundel, as next heir, for his relief, &c. saving to Joan, widow
of the deceased Earl, her reasonable dower ; ° and in another
patent, dated 20th June ao. 23 Edw. III. o the King, at the
instance of Richard Earl of Arundel (who thought the former
patent not strong enough) releases all his right in the honours,
lands, &c. of the said John de Warren, Earl of Surrey, who was
dead, without issue male of his body, to Joan de Barrs, Coun-
tess of Surrey, "quae fuit uxor ejusdem Comitis," for her life,
remainder to the said Richard Earlof Arundel and his heirs for
ever. P And it was not till after the death of the said Joan de
Bars, which happened on Sunday in the feast of the decollation
of St. John, a^. 35 Edw. III. q being the last day of August,
that the Earl of Arundel used the additional title of Surrey.

At the end add^ The descent of Pointz will be treated of
elsewhere; I shall add here some account of ihat of Vivoin.
The family was seated in Poitou, and this Hugh, who married
the elder coheir of Malet, was steward of Poitou, Aquitaine and
Gascony, under King Henry the Third. He had issue by the
said Mabel two sons, William and Hugh, and one daughter
naraed after her maternal aunt Helewisa, and married to Wal-
ter son of Saher de WahuU. * William the eldest son was
called de Fortibus (ob militarem virtutem) and in 32 Hen. HI.
had leave to go over to Poitou to recover such lands and tene-
ments as ought to descend to him by inheritance from the death
of Americ de Vivonia his uncle.'*. He married Maud de Kyme,
sixth daughter and coheir of Sybyl de Ferrars, by whom he had
four daughters his coheirs, viz. first, Johan, wife of Reginald
FitzPeter: second, Cecilia, wife of John Lord Beauchamp of
Hache ; third, Sybyl, wife of Guy de Roche-Chiward ; and
fourth, Mabel, wife of Foulk de Archiaco.
Hugh de Vivonia, second son of Hugh by Mabel Malet, held
the manor of Sellinge in Kent, which he obtained (as I conjec-
ture) with his wife Petronilla, daughter of William de Putot :
he was slain in Wales, and left issue by his said wife a son,
named John de Vivonia, who died sfi. 8 Edw. II. seised of the
manor of Sellinge aforesaid, which he held of the King in chief
by the service of one knight*s fee and the payment of ten shil-
lings annually for castle ward of Dover ; and Peter FitzRegi-
nald, son and heir of Joan de Vivonia, one of the daughters aiid
heirs of William de Fortibus, uncle of the said John, and Cecih'a
de Bellocampo, another daughter ond heir of the said William,
were found to be his cousins and next heirs, Peter being thirty
years of age, and Cecilia upwards of forty. * Peter became

• The following is a transcript from the Visitation of Salop, (C 35.) of the in-
scriptions alluded to, at Whitchurch, co. Salop :~
In the south wall of this chancell is an arch, wherein lies the figare of John Tal-
bot (the first Earle of Shrewsbury of that family) in armour, over which is his
mantle of the Order of the Garter, verged round with foure welts, having on the
left shoulder thereof St. George his crosse within a garter ; and about his left legg
the garter ; the motto whereof beginneth at the labell. Upon his head is a coronet,
the flowres and pearles whereof are raysed in this sort. (The MS. has a repre-
sentation of the coronet.)
In the npper part of this arch there was a brasse plate, whereon this epitaph
was graven :
" Orate pro anima prenobilis domini, domini Jobannis Talbot quondam comitis
Salopie, domini Talbot, d'ni de Fumivall, domini Verdon, domini Strange de
Blackmere, et Marescalli Francie ; qoi obiit in bello apud Burdews xvij° die Julii

In a manuscript booke, now in the hands of the parish-clarke, wherein 15» Jolii
a". 1598 some estracts ont of the old chorch registcr are entred, is this epitaph
also to be seene ; which was heretofore written (as I guesse) on some tablet hang-
ing neere this tombe, viz.

of Washford, Waterford, and Valence; Lord Talbot of Goodrich and UrchinfeiU;

the successor in the Earldom taking only those dignities which
were limited to heirs male in the original letters patent by which
they were created. I make this remark, because Collins, Ed-
mondson, and other writers upon the Peerage, have erroneously
ascribed to the subsequent Earls all the Baronies by writ that
were attributed to the father of the Lady Alathea ; in some of
which he himself had only a share, as may be seen under the re-
spective titles.

Tateshall. — Vol. I. p. 439.
P. 440, 1. 27, insert as a note on, "Amabill, the eldestof the
four dauijhters and heirs of Winiam, the fourth of that name,
Earl of Arundell." This is not strictly correct. Wiliiam the
fourth Earl had issue two sons, viz. William the fifth of that
name, who succeeded him in the dignity, and who dying in a».
8 Hen. III. was succeeded by his brother Hugh. It was upon
the death of Earl Hugh in 27 Edw. III. that the inheritance
was divided. Mabel, or, as Dugdale calls her, Amabill, was
then dead, and her son Robert de Tateshale is described in the
partition " primogenitus haeres ; " yet it is remarkable that
Arundel Castle was not assigned to him, but to John Fitz Alan,
a minor in ward to the King, son of one of the younger sisters.
■ from Jine 63 to 69, is all a mistake. The lady there
described was not the wife of that Robert de Tateshall, but of
his son, as is correctly stated in the next column. I am sorry I
cannot furnish a wife to supply the place of the lady whom I
have transferred to his son.
P. 440'', 1. 38, after " sisters," note. These ladies were his
aunts, not his sisters, which is thus proved by inquisition p. m.
of the minor, wherein they are expressly called sisters of his
grandfather, and also by Esc. 18 Ric. II. no. 34, after the death
of Mary Lady Roos of Hamlake, great-granddaughter of Isabel
de Orreby.
1. 47, after " Cove," add. I do not find any other
authority for this marriage with Cove; on the contrary, at her
death, a^. 24 Edw. III. she is described only as the widow of
Tateshale. S
P. 441, 1. 7, add. The Barony of Tateshall was a Barony by
tenure, and ranks amongst the oldest. The earliest writ of
summons is of the 23rd of Edw. I. but it is not therefore lo be
concluded that they were not Peers of ParHament before that
time; the notorious defect of Parliamentary Records forbids
such a conclusion. The Baron to whom the first writ issued, had
then been more than twenty years at the head of tlie
family ; he continued to be summoned till the year in which he
t Esc. 24 Edw. in. u. 97. and 30 Edw. III. a. 44.

died, which was 26 Edw. I. ; his son, who succeeded him, was
summoned the 27th, and from that to the 30th, but dying in the
31st, and leaving only one son, of the age of fifteen, who died
in his minority without issue, the male line became extinct. It
is remarkable that in the famous letter of the Barons to the
Pope in 28 Edw. I. where each appears to describe himself by
the title of his Barony, Robert Tateshale writes, " Robertus
de Tatteshale Dominus de Bukenham ; " yet in the inquisition
after his death it is found that he held Tateshale and other lands
" per Baroniam integram," and Bukenham and others " per
servitium Pincernae."
Upon the death of the rainor, the Barony fell into abeyance
amongst the three coheirs abovenamed, and upon partition of
the lands each of them inherited a third of the Barony of
Tateshale ; a third of a fourth of the Earldom of Arundel, and
a third of a fourth of the Earldom of Chester. Of these co-
heirs Thomas de Cayley and John de Orreby were both sum-
moned to Parliament in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th of King Edw. II.
but not afterwards, although Cayley lived till the lOth, and Orre-
by till the llth Edw. II. It is probable that both Cayley and
Orreby were called to Parliament in consequence of this con-
nexion, but there is nothing allusive thereto in any of the writs.
Orreby's issue became extinct in 18 Ric. II. Driby's issue in
the third generation terminated in a sole heiress married to Sir
Ralph de Cromwell, who did homage for the lands of her
inheritance a». 35 Edw. III. and was summoned to Parliament
&°. 40. (See Cromwell of Tatteshall, page 149.)

CORBET OF CaUS. Vol. I. p. .515.
The Barony created by writs, from 22 Edw. I. to 15 Edw. II.
became extinct upon the death of Peter in 16 Edw. II. there
being then no issue remaining of the body of that Feter in whom
the dignity commenced.

grant of 100/. out of the lands of John de Beauchamp deceased,
nomine Custodiae, until the heir of said John should arrive at
full age.'
P. 516b, 1, 17, a/ter " heirs," note. This Beatrix was a daugh-
ter of John de Bello Campo, or Beauchamp, of Somerset. After
the death of Peter Corbet she married John de Leyburne, but
died wiihout issue, a". 22 Edw, III. and John de Beauchamp,
son of John, son of another John, brother of said Beatrix, was
found to be her heir, and twenty years old. ^

license lo settle the moieties of ihe manors of Brixton and Hur-
berton on himself and Beatrix his wife, and the heirs of said
Beatrix : Upon which occasion the jurors, in an inquisition ad
q. d., returned that the moiety of Hurberton was held of the
King by Barony, and that the moiety of Brixton is a member
of and belongs to the manor of Hurberton ; that Peter would
still have the castle and manor of Caus, in the county of Salop,
which he held of the King by Barony, and which was of the
value of 100/. ; that the moiety of Hurberton was worth 28
shillings, and that of Brixton 100.

of the King in capite ut dicitur, ancl that those persons being so
seised might settle the same upon said Earl and the heirs of his
body; remainder, in failure of such issue, to the King and his
heirs. And the King further granted to him a similar license
of alienation of all his other castles, lordships, manors, lands and
tenements, fees and advowsons in demesne or reversion, as well
in England as in Wales, except his manor of Asshele, co. Norf.
in fee simple to be settled again either upon himself solely or
conjointly with others in fee simple, fee tail, or for life, &c.
whereupon, ut dictum erat, the said Earl by his charter enfeoffed
Walter Amyas, John Abraham, John Doun, John Pratt, clerks,
Ralph de Walsham and Thomas Cricklade of the said castle
and Earldom, &c. and of all his other castles, &c. except his
manor of Asshele, and said feoffees, resettled the same on said
Earl for five years, within which term he again surrendered to
them and their heirs for ever by deed dated 15 Apr. a». 46
Edw. III. ; and afterwards, ut dicitur, upon going abroad into
Gascony, caused a certain schedule to be written and made, re-
quiring his said feoffees to perform and fulfill his last will therein
contained, and sent the same sealed, &c. to them by sea ; and upon
the said Earl's death, in partihus transmarinis, certain of those
feoffees came before the King in his Council at Westminster,
at Michaelmas ao. 49, and delivered in the said schedule, which
was opened and read before the Council.
Kyme.— Vol. I. p. 621.
P. 621, 1. 30. This Alice (Agnes) was daughter of William
son of Alan Waleys. (Cl. 15 Joh. m. 2.)
P. 621**, 1. 23, after " accordingly," add, and thus this Barony
of Kyme became involved with that of Umfreville, which began
in the same year, viz. 23 Edw. I. «
N. B. In the pedigree of Kyme (in Ph. bl. fol. p. 49, in the
Collef e of Arms) Philip de Kyme, whose daughter and heir
married Umfreville, is made to be son of Maud de Ferrars, but
it is quite clear that Maud de Ferrars had no issue by her first
husband Kyme, for at her death in 27 Edw. I. her children by
her second husband, William de Vivonia, were found to be her
heirs, and in the inquisition her first husband is called Simon

The single summons of 22 Edw, I. to John de Columbers,
since it was not followed by any others, though he lived till the
34th, I do not consider as creating a Barony in him ; Philip his
son was twenty-four years old when John died, but had no writ
till nine years after, viz. a^. 8 Edw. II. from which time to his
death in the 22nd of Edw. III. he was regularly summoned to
every Parliament, probably by reason of his having married
Eleanor, one of the sisters and coheirs of William Martin ; but,
as he died without issue, the Barony created in him by those
writs became extinct. It seems not necessary to the object of
ihis work to take particular notice of such collateral branches of
148 ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE.
the families of Barons as are not in the line of inheritance of
the dignity. I shall therefore only say that I find that Michael
de Columbers, who in a°. 9 Joh. gave 200 marks to the King
for license to marry Avice, the daughter of Elias Croc (and was
probably brother of that Mathew who was one of the governors
of Winchester castle in 1 John) was the father of Mathew who
married Maud de Morvill — that Avice, the widow of Michael,
died in 43 Hen. III. » leaving Mathew her son and heir forty
years old : that the said Mathew died in 1 Edw. I. without issue
by the said Maud de Morvill, leaving the said Michael his bro-
ther and heir, sixty years old; that Maud, the widow of Mathew,
married Henry de Cobham — that Michael de Cobham, as bro-
ther and heir of Mathew, and with the consent of Maud, gave
to John de Cobham, the father of Henry, the manors of Brent-
knoll, Hinton, and Pipardsclive, in the county of Somerset, and
that the said John settled the manor of Chesbury in Wilts upon
Maud and his son. p
Earldom of Devon Vol. I. p. 635.
Upon the death of Isabella de Fortibus, which happened a».
21 Edw. I. (1293), the Earldom of Devon devolved upon Hugh
de Courtenay her cousin. He demanded and received the ter-
tium denarium, but did not assume or use the title of Earl, but
was summoned to Parliament regularly as a Baron, by the style
of Hugo de Courtenay, from 27 Edw. I. to 8 Edw. III. q The
Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer at length refused to pay
him, as he did not claim it nomine comitis. Upon this he peti-
tioned the King, and the King ordered that he should take the
title and receive the money, and from this time (9 Edw. III.) he
is regularly summoned as Earl of Devon. ^

of Robert de Chaucombe. By the first he had only four daugh-

ters, Margaret being one of them, and by the second a son,
Roger, who became Baron of Dudley, and left a son John Lord
Dudley, and two daughters, who, by their brother's death with-
out issue, became coheirs of the Barony of Dudley. Margaret
should therefore be described as one of the four daughters by
his first wife of lloger de Somery, Baron of Dudley and coheir
of her mother Nicola, who was one of the four sisters and coheirs
of Hugh de Albini, Earl of Arundel. By which marriage the
Cromvvells inherited a fourth of a fourth of the Earldom of
Arundel with a fourth of a tburth of a fourth of that of Chester.
This is the language of record rather than history, but it is
adapted to the subject.
P. ^^^^, 1. 49 to p. 45, 1. 49. This long account of John de
Cromwell is here misplaced : he was certainly not a lineal an-
cestor of the Lords Cromwell of Tateshale, as the descent of the
town of Lamley in Nottinghamshire clearly proves. In Testa
de Nevill it appears that Ralph de Cromwell held " totam
villam de Lameleg de honore de Tykehill, et reddit per an-
num, 40li."8 In 17 Edw. I. Dfis Radus de Cromwell presentat
ad Ecclesiam de Lamley.' In the 24 Edw. I. a patent passed
the Great Seal quod Radus de Cromwell possit facere quandam
trencheam in bosco suo de Lamley." In T Edw. III. a patent
passed to Ralph de Cromwell (son of the last) quod possit assar-
tare et includere parvo fossato et bassa haia triginta acras vasti
in solo suo apud Lamley ; * and this Ralph I take to be the son
and heir of that Ralph whom Dugdale makes father of John,
and who by inquisition p. m. 27 Edw. I. is stated to have died
in that year, leaving Ralph his son and heir a minor only seven
years of age, who afterwards married Amicia, daughter of Roger
de Bellers, which Roger died a». 19 Edw. II. leaving Roger his
son and heir seven years old, upon the extinction of whose issue
(in the person of Robert Swillington) a». 8 Hen. V. Ralph Lord
Cromwell, the great-grandson of this Amicia, became heir of her
father. y
P. 45, 1. 50, note. This Ralph, who married Maud Bernake,
was the son and heir of Ralph by Amicia Bellers, and be-
sides the moiety of the Barony of Tateshale, he obtained also by

P. 45*. In the fine Roll of 21 Ric. II. termino Pasch, it is
noted that Robert de Tateshale, ancestor of Maud wife of Sir
Ralph Cromwell, was charged with 102/. 18«. 4d. viz. 100 marks
for the manors of Babinglee, Denton, Tybenham, co. Norfolk,
Tateshale St. Botolph, and Candesby, co. Lincoln, which said
Robert held of the King in chief "per Baroniam integram
secundum tenore Magnae Cartae," and 100 shillings for the
manor of Toft and for one knight's fee, which was originally
held of Gilbert de Gaunt, who afterwards gave all his fees to
the King ; also 25 shillings for the castle and manor of Boken-
ham, the manor of Wymundham, and the hundred of Shrop-
ham and Fretherbridge, in county of Norfolk, together with cer-
tain other lands there, which Robert his father had in property
of the inheritance of the late Earl of Arundel. Itis also further
noted, that said Robert the father acknowledged to hold the
manor of Hunmanby, co. York, of the King in chief. And it is
also further noted that Wymundham and Bokenhara are held
of the King in chief " per servitium PincemaB."
P. 46, 1. 27. This is not correct. He had an only sister
named Maud, second wife of Sir Richard Stanhope, Knt. by
whom she had a son named Henry, who died without issue aP.
31 Hen. \ I., and two daughters Maud and Joan, who became
heirs to their uncle.^ Maud married first to Robert Lord Wil-
loughby of Eresby, secondly to Sir Thomas Neville, and thirdly
to Sir Gervase Clifton, but had no issue by either. Joan mar-
ried to Humphrey Bourchier, a younger son of the Earl of
Essex and nephew to King Edward the Fourth, who was pleased
to terminate the abeyance of this Barony in his favour, and
summon him to the house of Peers by the litle of Humphrey
Bourghchier de Cromwell, cheV. He died without surviving
issue, and his widow became the wife of Sir Robert Radcliffe,
who also had no issue by her. Maud Lady Willoughby, the
last survivorof the two, died in 1497; and then the descendants
of the three aunts, named in the text, became heirs ; and amongst
them the dignity now remains in abeyance. The representatives
of Hawise Lady Bardolph are the Earl of Abingdon and Thomas

Stapleton of Carleton, Esq.a I cannot with equal precision point
out the present representatives of the other two : but in 1666 Sir
Godfrey Copley, Bart. and in 1699 Sir Philip Knyvet, Bart.
were the heirs of Maud Fitz-William and Elizabeth Chfton.
Bavent. — Vol. II. p. 64.
Sir William Dugdale has certainly mistaken the line of Ba-
vent, in the account he has here given. He says, that Robert
Bavent was summoned to Parliament in the 6th and 7th of
Edward II. and takes no notice of any future summons either to
him or his posterity. Upon referring to the writs of summons
it appears that Roger, not liobert Bavent was so summoned, and
that the same Roger was also further summoned with great
regularity till the 15th of Edw. II. when all his possessions were
seised into the King's hands as forfeited by his having been one
of the adherents to the unfortunate Earl of Lancaster. His life,
however, was spared, and he was included in the general restora-
tion which took place on the accession of the succeeding mo-
narch.''
This Roger was a minor at the death of his father Adam de
Bavent, and his wardship was disputed between the King and
William de Say a». 21 Edw. I.c It appears that he was still
a minor in the 35th of the same reign, when Geoffry de Say, son
and heir of the abovementioned William, reasserted his claim to
the wardship, ^ and ofFered to rest the proof of his right upon a
scrutiny of the books and rolls of the Exchequer, and the testi-
mony of the keeper of Dover Castle. This controversy is stated
more at large under the Barony of Maminot. In the Ist of
Edw. III. he was found to be one of the heirs of John Lord
GifFord of Brimmesfield, viz. son of Alice (wife of Adam de Ba-
vent) daughter of Peter Scudamore son of Maud (wife of God-
frey Scudamore) one of the aunts of John the last Lord GifFord
of Brimmesfield.
He was summoned to Parliament in the 6th, 7th, and 8th of

£dw. III. but not aflerwards, ancl I am inclined to think he
died about this time. I have not been able to meet with any
inquisition post niortem or other record that directly proves the
fact, but my conjecture is strengthened, if not confirmed, by a
grant (in the 31st Edward III. from the King to Peter de
Brewes and Joan his wife, of certain lands in VVitneston, Asshe-
hurst, &c. in Sussex, which the record says, " habuimus ex dono
et feoffamento Rogeri Bavent le fitz." ^ Be this, however, as it
may, it is certain that in the 13th of Edvv. III. Roger Bavent
conveyed his manor of Norton-Scudamore and other lands in
the county of Wilts for term of the life of Hawisia his wife to
Simon Bishop of Ely and William de Langley, parson of the
church of Ringwood, who in return bound themselves ad inve-
niendum predictce Hawisiae et pueris suis" sufficient sustenance
according to the value of the said lands ; and, notwithstanding
that the Bishop and parson fulfilled their engagements (as the
record says) in such a manner as that neither she, her children,
nor her husband, nor any other person ever complained, from
the lOth of March a^. 13 to the Monday next before the feast of
St. Margaret the Virgin in the 18th of Edw. III., they were on
the latter day disseised of the said manor, &,c. by the said Roger
and one W illiam de Kelleseye. «
On the Ist July in the same year he conveyed to the King his
manors of Walterstone in Ewyas, and Colmanstone inWales;
his manors of Norton, Billye, Withihill, Fiff hide, and Trowe,
in Wilts and Dorset; his lordship and lands of Puttefold and
Hattesham in Surrey ; his manors of Shibburn and Halling in
Kent; 40 pounds rent out of the manor of Braundeston in
SufFolk; the manors of Wilstanston, Inyngham, Asshehurst,
and Hene in Sussex ; the reversion of the manor of Coumbes
in Suffolk afier the death of Robert Hovel, who then
held it for Hfe ; and also all his other lands and tenements in
England and Wales which he then held in demesne, or which
might come to him by right of inheritance ; with the exception
only of the manors of Chiltington nnd Sloghtree in the county
of Sussex. ^
This conveyance appears to have been made only for the pur-
pose of making the King his heir ; for soon after, the lands were

John Bavent was found to be his son and heir twenty years old
and upwards. s Hawisia his wife survived him, and was living
his widow in the 35th of Edw. III.
A pedigree among Vincent's heraldic coUections in the Col-
lege of Arms, which I see no reason to question, states this John
to have died without issue ; and says that Eleanor, wife of Wil-
liam de Brewose (a younger son of William Lord Brewose of
Brembre) was his sister and heir. From this Eleanor descended
Beatrix de Brewse (daughter of Feter, h son of John, son of the
said Eleanor) who, by death of her brother Sir John Brewes,
Knt. without issue, became heir of this line. She married Sir
Hugh Shirley, who was Master of the Hounds to King Henry
the Fourth, and was slain, fighting on his part at the battle of
Shrewsbury.
The present Marquess Townshend (1808) is her heir and
representative.

marriage with the other daughter and coheir. Lord Zouclie
died a". 7 Edw. H and both St. Maur and Hohind were suni-
nioned for the first time tlie next year following his death; and
what confirms me in that opinion is, that Thomas St. Maur, the
son and heir of Nicholas byhis first wife, and who, if the dignity
had been of liis father's inheritance would no doubt have been
summoned when he came of *age, though he survived his father
upwards of forty years, was never summoned atall. It is true that
Niclioias, the son of the second wife was not summoned till 25
Edw. III. though he must have been of full age longbefore; but
this tends, I tliink, rather to confirm tlian confute my opinion,
because his mother was alive (hning all that period, and tliat
which was her inlieritance, though it niight be enjoyed by her
husband during his hfe, could not pass to her son till her death.

At p, 392 (of Longmate) line 12, a/ter " Berkeley," make a
long note thus :
I think it proper here to revert to the period of the death of
Thomas Lord Lawarre, great-uncle to this Thomas, in 155+, for
the purpose of offering a few observations upon tliis new creation
of the title in WiHiam, and the restoration, as it is called, of tlie
son of Wiliiam to the ancient place and precedency of his an-
cestors. The precise date of this new creation is no where men-
tioned with ceriainiy. I have never seen any leiters patent for
it, and am of opinion that none ever passed; William was sum-
moned to ParHament for the first time in a°. 13 Eliz. 1571, and
placed as the junior Baron, and during the remainder of his hfe,
more than twenty-five years, continued to be ranked according
to that date; an undeniable proof that he was considered as
holding his dignity by a new creation, and not as the right heir
of the ancient Barony : neither was he the right heir according
to any of the known rules that govern the descent of Baronies
by writ. According to those rules the Barony fell into abey-
ance at the death of his uncle in 1554, and was in the same
state at the moment when the ancient place was adjudged to
the son of William. William was certainly heir male to his
uncle, and he is expressly so described in the Act of Restitution,
but he was not heir general, and therefore I am at a loss to dis-
cover the principle upon which that judgment rested which gave
the rank of the ancient Barony to a person who could not pre-
tend to be the legal representative of die ancient Barons. I
shall endeavour to explaiQ the exact situation of the ancient
160 ADDITIONS TO DL'GDALe's BARONAGE.
Barony at the time of tlie death of Thomas in 1554, and I think
I cannot tlothis more inielligibly than by copying a Case drawn
up (in ao. 9 EHz. four years previous to the new creation) by Sir
Adrian Poynings, whose issue in right of his wife had, as he
thought, fair pretensions to the dignity.
The Heralds of that day, however, were of a different
opinion ; but I shall leave them to speak for themselves, pre-
mising only, if the reader should discover that in that state-
ment some of the children of Thomas the father are omitted,
that it was not necessary for the purpose of obtaining an official
opinion upon the question to insert more than are there taken
notice of.
Here copy the case of Sir Andrew Poynings. y
The issue of the marriage with Sir Andrew Poynings was
ihree daughters and coheirs, Elizabeth, Anne, and Mary.
AucHER Fitz-Henry (not in Dugdale).
Aucher Fitz-Henry had married Joan, one of the two daugh-
ters and coiieirs of John de Bella-aqua by Laderina his wife,
one of the four sisters and coheirs of Peter de Brus of Skel-
ton ; and in right of this marriage he possessed » one eighth
part of the Barony of Brus of Skelton, one eighth and one
third of another Barony which was attached to that of Brus,
and one eighth of the moiety of the Barony of Lancaster, after
tiie death of tlie mother of tlie said Peter de Brus. He was
summoned to Parliament from 2 to 19 Edw. 11.^ In 5 Edw. IL
he paid iOs. for his relief of the bailiwick of Waltham forest
descended to him from iiis father, and in 6 Edw. II. 15/. 6s. 6d.
for his relief of the lands of his said wife. He died about 13
Edw. III. and Henry his son was found to he next heir of both
father and mother, and 40 years old. <= This Henry in the
same year settled lands in Fobbing and Stanford, in Essex,
upon himself and Beatrice liis wife, their heirs and assigns for
ever. In 16 Edw. III. he paid the same sum of 15/. 6s. 6d. for
relief of the lands of his mother.J In 18 Edw. III. he enfeoffed
Richard de Depeden in four bovates of land in East Brune,
and of tiie manor of Thorpe Arches, co. York, with reversion to

Barony divided. Shipbrggke.s
Warin le Vernon was seised of the entire Barpny of Ship-
brooke, and held it during his lifetime — he left three daughters
lawfully begotten, who all three married and had issue. But
the said Warin had a brother who survived him, named Ralph,
who was Rector of the church of Kegworth. This Ralph, on
the death of his brother, entered into and took possession of
the Barony. The husbands of the three daughters with their
wives purchased a writ of the King, and for a long while main-
tained a suit against the uncle. At length it was agreed be-
tween them that the inheritance of the said Barony should be
divided into two parts, whereof one part should remain to said
Ralph and his heirs for ever, with the capital manor of Ship-
brooke, performing rent, service, and suit to the Earl of Chester,
with all otlier services belonging to the said W^arin ; and the
said Ralph accordingly did perform all said services during
his life, and he enfeoffed Ralph his son, and his heirs for ever;
who have performed and do perform all said services. And the
other half of the said Barony, with the capital manor of Left-
wich, should remain to the said three husbands and their wives,
with a certain scUina (saltwork) in the town of Northwich, called
the Juggershouse, " in emendatione, eo quod facient sect. Curie

REGISTER OF MARRIAGES, IN WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
From the title prefixed to the earliest existing Register of the Co
legiate Church of St. Peter, Westminster, it raay be inferred that the
former registers disappeared during the distraction of the Coramon-
wealth, as the " VVeddings, Christenings, and Burials," are said to be
" such as can be found in imperfect books, and such as have been care-
fuU}' taken entries of since the happy Restoration." The following
entries refer to Marriages solemnized between 1655 and 1705. Those
of a period anterior to the Restoration occur only in the years 1655 and
1656. They are transcribed from a MS. of the Miscellaneons Collec-
tion of the College of Arms, which contains also the Christenings and
Burials. In the same volume are extracts from the Registers of St.
Margarefs, Westniinster; St. Clemenfs Danes without Temple Barj
and St. Giles, Cripplegate.

Parson of Trowbridg and Bath, a worthy reverend preacher of
the word of God, and Chaplayn to the King's Maiesty, was
buried in the new church of Bath aforesaid on the north side of
the Bishop's Tumbe, close to the grave, the nineteenth day of
February 1620 (21).«
• John Pelling, of Magdalen CoUege, Oxford, B.A. 1583, B.D. 1597, was insti-
tuted to the rectory of Bath in 1590, and to the rectory of Trowbridge in 1595,
to which latter he was presented by Edward Earl of Hertford. He was buried
in the abbey church at Bath, which had been recently restored from a state of
almost utter ruin by the beneficence of Bishop Montague, and many other indivi-
duals, who had been instigated to the pious work by Mr. Pelling. His grave is in
the north aisle of the nave near to Bishop Montague's tomb ; and to shew the re-
spect of the city for hb serviees, the Corporation in 1621 erected a monument to
his memory against the north wall. This monument, which contained a bust of
the deceased within an oval stone frarae, something in the style of Shakspeare's
monument at Stratford, has been, within the last three or four years, most sacri-
legiously destroyed, with a number of others of ancient date. Some of the inscrip-
tions have been preserved, and among the rest the foUowing to the memory of Mr.
PeUing :—

THE EARLDOM OF GLAMORGAN.
Addendumfor Dugdale.
Amongst the titles attributed to Edward Somerset, second
Marquis of Worcester, and subsequently to the Dukes of Beau-
fort, are those of " Earl of Glamorgan, Viscount Grosmont and
Baron Beavfort of Caldecot" of which Dugdale does not take
any notice. Collins, in his account of the Dukes of Beaufort,
when speaking of Edward second Marquis of Worcester, who
succeeded to that dignity in 1646, foUowing the statement
of Sandford in his History (page 357), says, " he was by King
Ciiarles constituted Lord Lieutenant of North Wales, who di-
rected several letters to this Edward in the lifetime of his father,
by the title of Eari of Glamorgan, whicli title lie usually bore,
there then remaining in the Signet Office a bill under the
lloyal Sign ISlanual at Oxford (if a patent did not pass the
Great Seal thereupon) in order to his l)eing created Earl of
Glamorgan and Baron Beaufort, of Caldecot Castle, in the
county of Monmouth." » Sir Harris Nicohis, however, in his
Synopsis of the Peerage, under the title of " Glamorgan,"
■" John Gilmore was presented by the Dean and Chapter of Windsor, ten jears
later, in 1789 Institutions.-7-EDiT,
» Collius's Peerage, edit. 173^, vol. i. p. 75. Upon a recent examination, how-
ever, of the rccorded docqucts at the Signet office, no notice of any such bill was
to be found.
THE EARLDOM OF GLAMORGAN. 191
after remarking that these Dignities are generally considered to
have been created by King Charles the First in the year 1644,
adds, " but great doubt exists whether the patent ever passed the
Great Seal." Diigdale takes no notice of any such creation,
whilst Beatson says the patent was cancelled in 1660, and Dale,
in his Catalogue of Nobility, does not attribute these titles to
the Duke of Beaufort, the descendant of the said Edward in
1697. The authority on which the titles in question appear to
have been assigned to the Dukes of Beaufort, is the circum-
stance of Charles the First having directed several letters to
Edward Somerset, above mentioned, by the title of Earl of
Glamorgan; and, in a Commission, no less remarkable than
illegal, dated in 1644,'' granting liim power to fill up certain
blank patents of creation to every dignity from a Marquis to a
Baronet, he is styled, " Edward Somerset, alias Plantagenet,
Lord Herbert, Baron Beaufort of Caldecote, Grismond, Chep-
stow, Ragland, and Gower, Earl of Glamorgan, son and heir
apparent of our entirely beloved cousin Henry Earl and Mar-
quis of Worcester ; " which patent was, in consequence of a
motion in the House of Lords after the Restoration, delivered
up, from its being deemed " in prejudice to the Peers ; " and
which is probably the cause of Beatson's statement, " that the
patent of creation to the dignities of Earl of Glamorgan and
Baron Beaufort was cancelled in 1660."«
■^ Ibid. p. 75, where the Commission is printed ; as also in Nicolas's History of
the British Orders of Knighthood. Appendix to the order of the Garter, xlvi.
' Lords' Joumals. The subject was brought before Parliament by the Marquis
of Hertford 18 Aug. 1661, as " a patent granted to the Marquis ofWorcester,
which is a prejudice to the Peers ;'' and the Marquis of Dorchester, on the 23rd,
reported, that the Marquis of Worcester confessed to their Lordships that a patent
was made and left in his hands by the King to create him Duke of Somerset,
upon certain conditions, which were never yet performed ; that he hath made no
use of it : that the said patent was in the hands of his son the Lord Herbert, and
that his Lordship was willing to deliver it up to his Majesty. On the 3rd Sep-
tember Lord Arundell of W^ardour acquainted the House, that the Marqois of
Worcester had delivered up the patent to his Majesty for the Dukedom of
Somerset.
The discussion upon this patent probably gave rise to the introduction of a bill,
which was read a iirst time on the 5th September, entitled, an Act for preventing
inconveniences which may arise by patents and grants made, or pretended to
be made, during the late troubles ; which passed the House on the following day,
and was sent to the Commons, together with a bill for restoring the Marquis of
Hertford to the Dukedom of Somerset. On the 8tb, the bill not having been re-
192 THE EARLDOM OF GLAMORGAN.
The editor of the Synopsis further remarks, that " another
Dignity attributed to the Dukes of Beaufort, is the Viscountcy
of Grosmont," but adds, it has baffled liis research to discover
the source whence that title is derived. Dale takes no notice
of any such dignity ; and the only trace of a title at all similar
is that recited in the Commission just noticed, wherein he is-
styled Baron Beaufort, of Caldecot, Grismond, Chepstow, Rag-
land, and Gower." ^
It is singular that such doubt and obscurity should exist re-
specting the grant of the Earldom of Glamorgan to a member
of so distinguished a family. On reference to the original
Docquet Book of grants made by King Charles at Oxford, com-
mencing in December, in the 18th year of his reign, 1642, and
ending in June 1646,^ no notice whatever occurs of the grant of
such a patent among the numerous grants of Dignities which
are there recorded. If the patent passed, it was in all proba-
bility between the 16th April 1643, when a commission was
issued to him, in which he is called " Edward Lord Herbert,
son and heir to the Lord Marquis of Worcester,"^ and the Ist
April 1644, when he is styled " Edward Somerset, alias Plan-
tagenet, Lord Herbert, Baron Beaufort of Caldecote, Grismond,
Chepstow, Ragland, and Gower, Earl of Glamorgan," in the
before mentioned commission bearing that date.
Among the docquets recorded in the office of the clerk of the
patents there is a protection royal granted to him, dated on
the 13th November 1645, wherein he is called " Edward Lord
Herbert Earl of Glamorgan," S and in a message to Parliament
from King Charles, under his sign manual, and dated at Oxford
29 January foUowing, disclaiming any knowledge of the Earl
of Glamorgan's treaty with the rebels in Ireland, wherewith
he was charged and arrested upon suspicion of high treason, he
is spoken of by that title. The message is entered at length
tumed, a message was sent to remind the Commons, and on the lOth a message
was sent from the Commons to acquaint their Lordships that the bill had been
twice read, and stood committed. The bill of restoring the Dukedom of Somerset
to the Marquisate of Hertford passed, and received the royal assent on the 13th ;
but no further notice appears respecting the other.

there is an entry stating that certain letters were read, which
were by Captain Moulton, Admiral of the Irish seas, taken and
sent up, wherein was divers letters, and the copy of the articles
which the Earl of Glamorgan made with the Irish for sending
over ten thousand Irish; and a particular letter of the pretended
Earl of Morgan (sic) to his lady in England, shewinghow kindly
he is used by the Lord Ormond and the council there, he
being accused by the Lord George Digby of high treason. >
On the Ist October 1646, there is an order upon the Lords
Journal that a pass be granted to the Lady Herbert, Countess
of Glamorgan, into Ireland with thirty of her menial ser-
vants, ^ &c
That he was considered Earl of Glamorgan after the Resto-
ration seems evident from a royal warrant under the sign
manual of King Charles the Second on 6th April 1661, wherein
his Majesty, after reciting the descent of John (Granville) Earl
of Batli, declares " that in case the Earldom of Glamorgan
should at any time fall into the hands of the Crown during
our reign for want of heirs male of the present Marquess by
his Lady now living, as we are informed the same ts settled by
our Royal Father, of blessed memory, we will not again confer
the said Earldom upon any other family, but restore the same
to that of the Granvilles, by creating the said present Earl of
Bath, also Earl of Glamorgan." *

• Recorded in the College of Arms, I. 27, p. 120, as follows : —
Charles R.
Wbereas it appears onto us, that otir right tmsty and right welbeloved Coosin
John Earl of Bathe, Our Grome of the Stole, and First Gentleman of Onr Bed-
chamber, derires his title in a direct line as heir male onto Robert Fitzhamon,
Lord of Gloucester and Glamorgan, in the raignes of King William the Conqueror,
King William Rufus, and King Henry the First, and who was the son and heir of
the Lord Hamon dentatus Earl of Corboile, and Lord of Thorigny and Granrille
in Normandy, whereby he justly claims his descent from the younger son, as we
Our Self do ftom the eldest of Rollo the first Duke of Normandy, Our com*on
ancestor. In considerac'on whereof, and of the many eminent services performed
unto Us by the said Earl, We are graciously pleased to promise and declare, That
in case the Earldom of Glamorgan should at any time fall into the hands of tbe
Crown, during our reigne, for want of heirs males of the present Marquess by bis
Lady now living, as We are informed the same is setled by Our Royal Fatber of
194 THE EARLDOM OF GLAMORGAN.
From the expression " heirs male of the present Marquis by
his Lady now living, as we are informed the same is settled by
our royal father ; " it would seem that the limitation of the
patent was to the heirs male of his body by his second wife,
Margaret, second daughter of Henry 0'Brien, Earl of Thomond,
who died without surviving issue 26 Juiy 1681.™ The Mar-
quis died 3 April 1667, and was buried with great funeral
solemnity at Ragland on the 19th of the same month. In the
funeral certificate recorded in the College of Arms and attested
by his son and successor, the Earldom of Glamorgan is attri-
buted to him with his other titles. Henry, his only son, third
Marquis of Worcester, was installed Knight of the Garter in
1672 ; but the titles in question are not introduced upon his
blessed memory, We will not again conferr the said Earldome upon any other
family, but restore the same to that of the Granvilles, by creating the said present
Earle of Bathe also Earl of Glamorgan, to remain to him and his heires males,
and for default of such issue, to the heirs males of Sir Bevill Granville his father.
And we are further graciously pleased, for the considerations aforesaid, to allow
and permit the said Earle of Bathe to use also those other titles of Hono', as Earle
of Corboile, Thorigny, and Granville, as was formerly done by his ancestors. And
though the same hath been discontinued of late by some of his late ancestors, yet
we do hereby give fuU power and authority to the said Earle of Bathe, not only for
himself and his posterity to use the same, but in case he shall hereafter erect in me-
mory of his father, or any other his famous ancestors any monument or inscription
concerning him or them, touse the name, stile, and dignity of Earl of Corboile,
Thorigny, and Granville, in as full and ample manner as his said ancestors for-
merly used before Normandy was lost from the Crown of England. The said
loyal family of the Granvilles being then also sufFerers with the Crown, and then
dispossessed for their loyalty out of their said inheritance of the said Earldom and
Lordships within Our said antient Dutchy of Normandy : Whereof we have
thought fitt at this time to make this declaration of Our Royal will and pleasure,
aswell in justice towards a family so noble and antient by birth, and so eminently
deserving for their virtue and loyalty to Our Self and Our Royal ancestors from
the Conquest unto this present day ; as also for a perpetual example and encou-
ragement to others to imitate the same, com'anding all persons whatsoever who
are and may be concerned to take notice hereof. Given at our Court at Whitehal
this twenty-sixth day of April in the thirteenth year of our reign, Annoq; D'ni

" The issue by her was an only daughter Mary, who died in infancy. Upon
the death of her husband the Marchioness remarried Donough 0'Kearney, Esq.
who administered to her effects 31 Mayl682.

stall plate at Windsor, « nor clo they appear upon the magnifi-
cent monument erected to his memory at Ragland."
John Earl of Bath, for whom King Charles had destined the
the Elarldom of Glamorgan, if it fell into the hands of the
Crown, survived the royal monarch (dying in the year 1701)
without having received any grant of the Earldom, from which
it may perhaps be inferred that the limitations of the supposed
patent were not confined to the heirs male of the Marquis by
his second wife.
In 1712 Simon Segar published his Catalogue of the various
creations, entitled, " Honores Anglicani," where, in his list of
Earls, he states that Edward Somerset was created Earl of
Glamorgan 21 Car. I. 1645, P and under Viscounts says, he was
created Viscount Grosmont and Caldecote in Wales 21 Car. I.
1645, and Earl of Glamorgan. ^
In 1713 this nobleman*s great-grandson, Henry Duke of
Beaufort, was installed as Knight of the Garter, when tlie titles
of " Earl of Glamorgan and Baron Beaufort of Caldecot " ap-
pear among the others upon his stall plate at Windsor. ^
In 1801, Henry fiflh Duke, who was elected a Knight of the
Garter in 1786, was installed, and upon his stall plate, among
other titles are those of " Earl of Glamorgan, Viscount Gros-
mont and Baron Beaufort of Caldecote," s and they also occur
on the plate of Henry Charles sixth Duke, who was inslalled in
1805.
Upon what ground Garter Anstis introduced the titles of
" Earl of Glamorgan and Baron Beaufort" in 1713, when he
did not find them upon the plate of the second Marquis of
Worcester in 1672, does not appear; but the insertion of the

EXTRACTS FROM THE TOPOGRAPHICAL COLLECTIONS OF SIR
HENRT CALTHORPE, KNT. TEMP. CHARLES I. RELATING TO
SEVERAL PARISHES IN THE COUNTY OF NORFOLK.
The general correctness of Messrs. Blomefield and Parkin, the Nor-
folk historians, is commonly admitted. Errors and omissions are, how-
ever, from a variety of causes, unavoidable in such works, and it may be
considered a commendable service to correct the one and supply the
other, whenever an opportunity occurs. Under this impression, I have
transcribed a manuscript account of manorial and other property, in
some parishes in that county, which, npon comparison with their state-
ments, will, in some cases, be found to differ, and in others to afford
additional information. The MS. in question was collected and ar-
ranged by Sir Henry Calthorpe, of Ampton, in Suffolk, » an eminent
lawyer in the early part of the seventeenth century, from original docu-
ments in his own possessiou, ha\ing been an owner of property in most
of those parishes to which his coUections relate.
A. P.
BURGH ST. MARGARET'S,
is a parish in the hundred of East and West Flegg.
** Sir Reyner de Burgo was owner of this mannor in the be-
ginninge of the reigne of Henrye the Third, for by a deede with-
out date it appeareth that there was land claymed att his Court
of Burgh ; and from Sir Reyner de Burgo did the same mannor
discend unto Sir WilHam de Burgo as his sonne and heire; and,
as I conceive, the same mannor did discend from Sir William
de Burgo unto Nicholas his sonne ; for I doe finde by a deede
without date that Nicholas was the sonne of WiUiam, and I doe
finde noe other sonns but him, and from him did the same
* Sir Henry Calthorpe was saccessiyely Common Serjeant and Recorder of the
City of London, Solicitor-General to Queen Henrietta-Maria, and Attomey of
the Court of Wards and Liveries. He was the author of " Proposals for regti-
lating the Law," and of a Tolume of Reports relatiTe to the Cnstoms of London.

mannor discend, as I conceive, unto Sir Walter de Burgo,
whon^e I doe finde by deede without date, and in the beginninge
of Edw. I. reigne, lo be owner of lande in Burgh."
The foUowing extracts, selected from various original docu-
ments, will confirm the above statement, and at the same time,
correct the one given by Mr. Parkin, concerning the members
of this family, who were owners of this lordship : —
" By an agreement betwixt Reyner de Burgh and the Ladye
Mabill his mother, and Sir Warren of Rollesbye, and Sir Ro-
bert de Burgh, Reyner, with the consent and graunt of the
Ladye Mabill his mother, doth demise unto the said Warren
and Robert his sheepecourse in Wintell neere unto the towne
of Stokesbie, with the appurtenances, and with the fouldage in
the fields att the goeinge out from the marshe, att the Annun-
ciacon for 4 yeares ; and this in consideracon of eight marks
given."
" William of Otum of Clippisbie doth make a feoffment unto
Mabill of Burgh and Reyner her sonne and their heirs, of three
roodes of lande in Burgh, perticulerlie abuttailed, to hold of
him and his heirs for their homage and semce, and lOs. given
in earnest, and rendringe yearelie att Micfeas ]</. for all customs
and services, savinge the service unto the kinge, vizt. for everie
xxs. ofscutage ob. ; and soe, if more more, if lesse lesse."
"42 Hen. IIL An agreement betwixt Sir WilUam de Burgh
on the one parte, and the Ladie Joane, which was the wife of
Sir Reyner de Burgh, of the other parte, whereby Sir William
doth give recompence of lande in Ailmerton and the townes ad-
joyninge for lande, rent, and services, whereof she was dowable
in Burgh."
" Richard of Clippesbie doth enfeoffe Nicholas, the sonne of
William de Burgo, and his heirs, of one acre and half a roode
of lande, to hould of him and liis heires by vjrf. a ycar, for all
rent and services."
"16 Edw. I. Sir Thomas Abigenilla doth release unto Sir
Walter de Burgo and his heirs all his right and estate which he
had formerlie in twelve acres of lande, in Orbye, Clippisbie, and
Burgh, by the graunt of Sir Walter for term of his life."
The following selection will shew the other members of this
family who had an interest in the parish of Burgh :—
" Thomas de Burgo doth enfeofte Reyner de Burgo and his
BURGH ST. MARGARET*S, NORFOLK. 199
heirs of two acres of lande in Bui^h, rendring 4</. yearelie att
Michas for all rente and services."
" Richard, the sonne of Robert de Bellus, doth graunt unto
Sir Reginald de Burgo and his heirs, Robert the sonne of Allen
and others that were his villeines and neife, with all their
sequell, to hould of him and his heirs, rendring unto him and
his heirs \d. yearly for all services and demande at Miclias.*'
" Henry Castome, the sonne of Harvie, doth enfeoffe John de
Burgo, parson, and his heirs, of one roode of lande, to hould of
him and his heires, rendringunto him and his heires Bd. yearelie
for all services and demande."
" An affreement betwixt Henrie of the Willowes and John
parson of Burgh, whereby Henrie doth demise unto the said
John two acres of lande in Clippesbie for 10 yeares, to beginn
after the death of the Bisshopp of Durham."
** Thomas de Burgo de Fishby doth enfeofFe William the
sonne of Reyner de Burgo, and his heirs, of five acres of lande in
Burgh, rendringe yearlie to him and his heirs i]d. yearlie at the
feast of Michaell."
'^ Wiiliam, the sonne of Roger of Ormebye, doth enfeoffe Wil-
Ham the sonne of Sir Reyner de Burgh, and his heirs, of three
acres of lande in Burgh, and doth graunt Nicholas the sonne of
Osbert Hikili, with all his sequell, unto him and his heirs, ren-
dringe yearlie unto him and his heires a root of ginger att
Michas."
It appears the de Bosville's of Newton near Castleacre, were
the ancestors of the Burgo family, and benefactors to the priory
at Castleacre. In the reign of Henry II. or Richard I. Reyner
de Burgo was vicar of that parish.
" In the 5 Edw. II. Joane of Claveringe, Ladie of Burgh,
doth enfeoffe Peter Buskyn and his heirs, of the marshe, called
Okeholme, lyenge betwixt the comon bank of Weybridge on
the south, and the comon marshe of Clippisbie of the north, to
hould of the chiefe lorde by the accustomed rente and services."
" In tlie Rolle of 9 Edw. III. 1 finde that Joane, the daugh-
ter of Sir Walter de Burgo, solde the reversion, and Sir Ed-
mond de Ufford, 43 Edw. III. was owner of the manor."
"15 Ric. II. Sir Robert de Ufford doth enfeoffe Robert
Walle, the sonne of Allen Walle of Willowby, and his heirs,
of one niessuage, two acres, a roode and a halfe of lande in
200 siR H. calthorpe's collections.
Willowby perticulerlie abuttailed, to hold of the chiefe lorde,
rendringe yearlie unto Sir Robert Ufford and his heires viije/.
att Michas or Easter, with a clawse of distresse."
" 9 £dw. IV. I doe finde that the Lord Dacres was owner of
the mannor of Burgh St. Margarett."
This Joane of Clavering, and Joane the daughter of Sir
Walter de Burgo, was, we presume, the same individual ; who
was heiress to her father, and wife of Sir Alexander de Claver-
ing, eldest son of Sir Robert Fitz-Roger. At the time of the
said reversionaiy grant, she was a widow, and the person to
whom the grant was made, Sir John de Clavering of Horsford
in Norfolk, Sir Alexander's younger brother. Sir John de
Clavering left issue an only daughter, Eva, whose second hus-
band was Sir Thomas de Ufford, by whom she had three sons,
and of whom the above Sir Edmund de Ufford was the youngest,
and inherited this lordship. He married Sibilla, daughter of
Sir Simon Pierpoint of Henstead, in Suffolk, and died in 1374.
Sir Robert de Ufford, his son, married Helen, daughter of
Sir Thomas Felton, Knt. and died in 1400, leaving Amey his
daughter and coheir, who brought this lordship by marriage to
Sir W^ilHam Bowet, of an ancient Cumberland family, and
who, it appears, was dead in the tenth of Henry V. and this
lady re-married to Sir Henry Inglose.
EHzabeth, daughter and heir of the above Sir William Bowet
and Amey Ufford, married Sir Thomas Dacre, son and heir of
Thomas Lord Dacre, of Gillesland, and in her right became
proprietor of this manor ; and Joane, his daughter and heir,
brought it to Sir Richard Fiennes, who became Lord Dacre, in
right of the said Lady Joane, his wife.
Mr. Parkin names Sir William Bowet, Sir Henry Inglose,
and the Lord Dacre, as having an interest here, but mistakes as
to the Uffords, Earls of Suffolk, being owners. Our manuscript
authority proceeds as follows : —
" 28 Jan. 21 Hen. VII. Sir Thomas Fynes, Lord Dacre, and
Anne his wife, doth by deed enroUed in Chancerie, for 420/,
bargaine and .sell unto Sir WiUiam Capell and his heirs the
mannor of Burgh St. Margarette, with the appurtenances,
and he covenhteth the same to be of tiie yeareUe valewe of
25/. 13s. 4<d. Thomas Lord Dacre and William Fynes his
uncle doe release unto Sir William Capell and John Bayrefoot,
BURGH ST. MARGARET'.S, NORFOLK. 201
clerk, and their heirs, all their right in this mannor, 6 Apr. in
the same year." W illiam Fynes gives a particular warrantry
against the Abbat of Westrainster and his successors. The ex-
tent of the demesne, as inserted in the said release, was thirty
messuages, twenty tofts, 1000 acres of land, 100 acres of mea-
dow, 300 acres of pasture, 10 acres of wood, 300 acres of heath
and bruery, and \0U rent in Burgh St. Margaret, Burgh St.
Mary, and adjoining parishes.
It continued in the family of Capel until 2 Chas. I. of which
family our manuscript furnishes the following account: —
" Sir W^iUiam Capell, Knt. died the 7th Hen. VIII., Sir
Giles Capell being his son and heir, who died the 3rd and
4th of Philip and Mary, Sir Henry Capell being his son and
heir, who died without issue the following year, leaving Sir ELd-
ward Iiis brother and heir. Sir Edward Capell died about the
18th Eliz. Henry Capell, Esq. being his son and heir ; who died
in the 30th of the same reign, Sir Arthur Capell being his
son and heir; who died the 8th Chas. i. Arthur Capell being
his grandchild and heir, i. e. son and heir of Sir Henry Capell,
son and heir of Sir Arthur Capell."
The steward of the Abbat of St. Bennet at Holm paid sixty
shillings unto the lord yearly for a fishery in this parish ; by
this and other payments it appears that the fishings, of which
there were several here, namely, Awdley's-meres, Brandwith-
water, Coddespond, Newfleete, Weybridge, Burgh faldgate,
Burghfleete, &c. yielded more profit to the lord than the soil.
There was anciently a foldcourse belonging to this manor,
and also a swan mark, and licences were given from time to
time by the Lord for marriages. There were several wardships
belonging unto the manor, and tenures by knight's service ; the
Court had power to hold pleas of personal and real actions,
and the Lord claimed all waifes and estraies. It is ap-
parent, by the deeds of purchase, fines, and other assurances,
that the manor of Burgh doth extend into Billockby, and that
the Lord of Burgh had both freeholders and copyholders in
Billockby.
In the 1 Sth Eliz. Sir Henry Capell and Henry Capell grant
a lease unto Thomas Gawdye, one of the Justices of the Queen's
Bench, of one hundred acres of marsh, rendering yearly seven
pounds; and in 10 Jac. I. Robert Tasburge hires the Swan

mark, with liberty to breed swans, rendering yearly twelve
pence, on lease for seventeen years.
STIFKEY.
The same authority gives some particulars respecting the pa-
rish of Stifkey, in the hundred of North Greenhow, in Norfolk,
not noticed by the county historian.
The principal lordships in this parish were Turtevile's and
Irmingland's manors, Netherhall, and Stowes, or Stifkey. Mr.
Parkin notices several smaller manors, or free tenements, that
afterwards became united to one or other of the above, and in a
copy of a court roll of 20 Hen. VII. the style of Stifkey Nether-
hall is given, all the rest being Stifkey only.
In some abstracts from the copies of the court held for the
manor of Stifkey, and the manor of Stifkey Netherhall and
Stowes, tlie writer conceives them to be all one, because he
finds the Bulleyn's to be owners of the manor of Netherhall and
Stowes, " and yet," he observes, " there bee several coppies in
the tyme of Edw. IV. wherein there is one Stifkey put without
an addition."
lu 4 Ric. II. Sir John de Akom, Attorney-general of the
Earl of Northampton, grants a lease for nine years of the
church of St. IVlary in Stifkey, and view of the manor of Stif-
key, with the appurtenances. It is added, " being the inherit-
ance of the Earle of Northampton ; of wardes, marriages, es-
cheats, and forfeitures, rendring 5^. 6s. 8d."
Thomas of Woodstock, Duke of Gloucester, youngest son of
King Edward III. was created Earl of Buckingham and North-
ampton, at the coronation of Richard II. in 1377, and the King
gave him 1000 marks yearly out of his treasury, until he had
provided him land to that value ; and this property was proba-
bly obtained by a grant from the Crown, during the minority
of Elizabeth and Mary, daughters and coheirs of David Stra-
bolgi, third Earl of Athol, as one William Parker was rector,
and presented by the King about that time.
This is the only account we meet with of the early proprietors
of this manor until the 12th Edw. IV. when the lord makes a
grant, to Peter Holme and Emme his wife, of an acre of the
demesne, and this appears to be the first court of William
Bolleyn.
STIFKEY, NORFOLK. 203
In 38 Hen. VIII. Sir James Buleyn, Knt. for 600/. bargains
and sells the manor called Netherhail and Stowes, and the ad-
vowson of the church of St. Mary in Stifkey, unto James Cal-
thorpe, of Cockthorpe, Esq. and his heirs ; and Sir James
Buleyn levies a fine unto James Cahhorpe of the said manor
and advowson, with the appurtenances, and of ten messuages,
with as many gardens, three hundred acres of land, forty acres
of meadow, two hundred acres of pasture, forly acres of heath
and bruery, three hundred acres of salt-marsh, and one hundred
shilUugs rent, and the rent of ten hens, two hundred eggs, and
three quarters of oats, in Stifkey and parishes adjoining, and of
a foldcourse for six hundred sheep in Stifkey.
A licence of aUenation was granted to the said James Cal-
thorpe, Esq. in 3 &, 4 Piiil. & Mar. and he makes a feoffment
in trust for the use of Thomas and John Calthorpe his younger
sons, and after his death it passed to them accordingly.
In 3 Eliz. John Calthorpe makes a lease of his moiety unto
Thomas Cahhorpe his brother, for nine years, at the yearly
rent of 20/. with a proviso to be void upon the taking of the
same by John Cahhorpe into his own hands.
In the fifth of the same reign John Calthorpe, for 29/. bar-
gains and sells unto John Banyard and his heirs, the advowson
of the church of St. Mary in Stifkey and the moiety of the close
called Netherhall in the same parish, lying between the church
of St. John and St. Mary and a close called Irmingland on the
norlh, &c. with a covenant to levy a fine before the end of
Trinity term. The following year the said John CaUhorpe
grants a lease of the moiety of the manor of Netherhall and
Stowes unto the said John Banyard for one and twenty years,
at the yearly rent of 20/. This accounts for the interest James
CaUhorpe, Esq. had in this property, and also explains the rea-
son why John Banyard (not Baynard) presented to the church
of St. Mary in 1564, although not owner ofthe lordsbip, as Mr.
Parkin supposes.
The manor of Netherhall and Stowes is held of the Crown by
knight's service in chief, and it is apparent that the advowson of
the church of St. Mary in Stifkey was anciently appended to
the said manor; but, being past by James Calthorpe to
Thomas and John his younger sons, tc^ether with the said
204 siR H. galthorpe's collections.
manor, as above stated, the same became an advowson in gross,
and divided from the manor.
There were botli freeholders and copyholders belonging to
that manor, with a leet appendant and court baron incident
thereto, wl)ich l)ad power to hold of all civil and personal ac-
tions, under the value of forty shillings. Wreck of sea also
belonged to it, and there vvas anciently an officer called
Prepositus, ^ and the office was termed Officium Prepositi, and
there were several tenantries in the manor that were in their
course, which was every seven years, to bear that office, and for
the discharge thereof there was paid by the tenant, that was
to bear the same, at the rate of 20d. per acre.
Tlie last will and testament of James Munday, anciently a
tenant of this manor, is subjoined, being an exact transcript of
the original in my possession : —

Concerning the lordships of Turtevile's, Irmingland's, Cur-
lue*s, &c. in Stifkey, noticed by Mr. Parkin, with the advowson
of tlie church of St. John Baptist, in the same parish, we collect
the following particulars : —
45 Hen. III. A release from Galfrid the son of Bartholomew
of Stifkey, unto Raphe the son of William of Stifkey, and
his heirs.
A feoffment by Richard Curlue, of Stifkey, knight, unto
Alexander Curlue and his heirs for his homage and service, and
six markes in money, one piece of land, with the appurtenances,
in Stifkey.
2 Edw. II. A grant and release from Cecily the wife of
Henry de Bosco, of Bodham, unto Ralph de Irmingland and
his heirs, of all her right in the manor of Stifkey, with the ap-
purtenances,'and moiety of the church of St. John in Stifkey,
and the homage and service of Thomas the son and heir of
Jeffery de East.
12 Edw. II. A fine levied before William de Beresford,
Gilbert de Norbury, John de Bensteade, John Bacon, and John
Nutford, Ju&tices, by Raphe de Irmingland unto William the
son of Robert Storme of Wiveton, of the manor of Stifkey,
with the appurtenances, and the advowson of the church of St.
John Baptist of the same, who renders the said manor and ad-
vowson uiito Raphe and Agnes his wife, and iheir heirs, the
remainder to the right heirs of Raphe.

At the same time a feofFment was made by the said Ralph
unto William the son of Robert Storm, of Wiveton, and his
heirs, of llie said manor and advowson. Sir Walter de Cal-
thorpe, Robert de Baconthorpe, and Richard de Walsingham,
knights, amongst others, are witnesses.
6 Hen. V. A feoffment from John, parson of the church of
Cockthorpe, and John Ecker, parson of the moiety of the
church of Leringsett, and others, unto Stephen Burges, Thomas
Stoke, and Dionise Wallys and their heirs, of twenty-four acres
of land in Stifkey, lyeing in thirteen pieces, together with the
wards, marriages, escheats, saltmarshes, and other appurte-
nances, foldcourses and passages, with tiie bounds and coasts of
the sea, whicli late were Thomas de Curlues of Reynham St.
Mary, and they, together with others, had of the feofFment of
Richard Lessehn of Stifkey.
8 Hen. VL A feoffment from Edward Tortevill, of Stifkey,
unto John Sutton and Guydo Childerhouse and their heirs, of
the manor of Curlues Knight, in Stifkey and Cockthorpe.
By a feoffment of the 31st of the same reign it appears, that
John Irmingland was owner of a manor in Stifkey.
In the 35 th of this King, a feoffment was made from Sir Galfrid
Ratliffe and others unto Nicholas Stermin and Margaret his
wife, of the twenty-four acres of land, as above described,
which they had jointly with Sir John Ratliffe of the feoffment
of Robert Stowe and John Wallys, 12 Hen. VI.
20 July, 13 Edw. IV. A feoffnient was made of the same
property from Nicholas Sturman unto Nicholas Fortescue, Es-
quire to the King's body, Joim Wotton, Thomas Langdon,

of the feoffment of Sir Galfrid Ratliffe. A rental was renewed
for the manor of Curlues in Stifkey, on the 18th of Aug. the
21st of the above reign.
It appears that Sir Thomas Robyn had land in Stifkey in 5
Hen. VIIL; and on the 12th of May, in the 17th of that reign,
a feoffment was made from Thomas Hodson, parson of Cock-
thorpe, to Henry Winter and Dorothy his wife, and their heire,
with a remainder unto the heirs of Edmond Winter and Alice
his wife, of the manor of Curlue Knight's in Stifkey, with the
appurtenances, which he had of the feoffment of Henry Winter
on the 6th of May, in the same year.
STIFKEY, NORFOLK. 207
In 20 Hen. VIII. Henry Winter bargains and sells unto
Ralphe Symondes and his heirs, for 72/. ninety-five acres and
one rood of land, parcel of the above lordship ; and there is a
covenant for the levying of a fine, and suffering of a common
recovery. On the ist of December, in the same year, Ralphe
Symondes sells the said property unto William Greene, and on
the 4th of that month a feoffment was made from Ralphe
Symondes unto William Green and others of the same, and the
foilowing day a release was made from Henry Winter unto the
said William Greene.
In the 27th of this reign, a feoffment from William Greene
and others, unto Robert Childe and his heirs, of this property,
which he had by feoffment from Ralphe Symondes on the 4th
of September in that year. The 26th of December foUowing,
a feoffment was made from the said Robert Childe unto William
Green, Edmond Framingham, and others, of forty-seven acres
and a half and half a rood of land, nieadow and pasture, lying
in the fields of Stifkey and Cockthorpe, parcel of the above,
which Robert Childe had by feoffment, as above stated ; and
the following year William Greene sells unto Edmond Fram-
ingham of Cockthorpe, all his property in Stifkey and Cock-
thorpe, for 120 marks.
On the lOth of Dec. 3 & 4 Phil. & Mar. John Banyard
for 78/. bargains and sells unto James Calthorpe, of Cock-
thorpe, ' Esq. and his heirs, the moiety of twenty-one acres and
one rood of land in Stifkey, in the south and north fields, per-
taining to the foldcourse called Netherhall foldcourse, the
moiety of the saltmarsh pertaining to the said foldcourse, and
all liberties and profits sometimes pertaining to the manor called
' Mr. Parkin, the Norfolk historian, makes the lordship and adTowson of Cock-
thorpe to have become the property of this family, in the same way as the Blake-
ney estate, namely, by the marriage of Sir Oliver Calthorpe with Isabel, daughter
of Sir Robert, and sister and coheir of Sir Bartholomew Bacon ; which is correct
respecting the latter, but an entire mistake with regard to the former. By an in-
dentore bearing date the 20th of April, 19 Edw. IV. 1480, it appears, that John
Sharington sells the manor and advowson of Cockthorpe to John, eldest son of
Richard Calthorpe, Esq. by Margaret his wife, daughter of William, and sister and
beiress of John Irmingland, Rector of Stifkey St. John Baptist. This Richard
Calthorpe was the second son of William, the only son of Sir Oliver, and the lady
Isabel Bacon his wife, grandson, not second son, of the latter, as stated by the
above author, and the person to whom the Blakeney estate was, by the said lady
Isabel his grandmother, bequeathed.

ACLE, IN WALSHAM HUNDRED.
The tenure of this lordship is of knight*s service, in chief of
the King, and there was paid in 1636, 12s. 8d. for respite of
homage. In an old rental of the second of Edw. VI. are men-
tioned the tenure of St. Andrew, the tenure of Wrongate-land,
the tenure caJled meadow-land, workland, sharedole, turfdole,
rushdole, reeddole, fendole, &c. The court leet used formerly
to appoint a constable, an ale-taster, an officer calied Prepositus
or reeve, also a reep-reeve, who was to take charge for reap-
ing the lord's corn, a messer or bailiflP to collect the rates, a
custos communae, who had the care of the common, a custos
bosci, who looked after the lord's woods, and a cart-reeve, who
had the charge and care of carrying his corn.
It appears by several court rolls of this manor, that there is a
custom within the manor, that if a woman who has an estate in
land, holden of this manor, or a title of dower, and doth with
her husband come into the court, and be examined in the court
by the steward, this is as sufficient a bar unto her as if she had
levied a fine ; and there was a fine usually paid unto the lord
upon such an examination, and release made in court.
In the 30th Eliz. a lease was granted by William Dixe and
John Holland,™ unto Theodore Obee, of the windmill, and an
acre of ground, for fourteen years, at the yearly rent of 6/.; and
in the 32nd of the same reign, Nicholas Crispe grants a lease
unto Edmund Kippinge, of the park of Acle, for twelve years,
rendering 8/.
ALDEBY, IN CLAVERING HUNDRED.
The tenure of this manor is of knight's service in chief ; a
court baron is incident thereto, and power to hold pleas both
real and personal; and there are both freeholders and copyholders
belonging to the lordship, also a court leet, a swan-mark, a war-
ren, and a fishing. There wcre heriots paid formerly for several
tenements. The lord had waifes and estrays, and he had harvest

works done by the tenanls, ancl they were to grind at ihe mill
of the lord. He had liberty of folding, and sonie share or part
of the marshes of Beccles, and a rent answered unto hira for
such his part.
In the bundle of the Escheat Rolls of the 16th Edw. IV. it
is found tliat Alianora died seised of the manor of Hockering
and Aldeby, with the appurtenances, in the county of Norfolk ;
and that they were holden of the King by knight's service in
chief, and were worth by the year 36/.
A grant was made in the 9th Hen. V. by Thomas de Morle,
Lord of Morle, Marshal of Ireland, and Isabell his wife, unto
Richard But, during his life, of the office of the custody of the
warren of Aldeby, and twopence by the day, payable out of the
profit of the said manor, for execution of that office.
In the 18th Edw. III. a feoffment was made from William de
Morley unto Adam Herbert and his heirs, of one plot of land
in Aldeby, called the Green . . . ., with the common of Meyard
for two cows and sheep and twelve old geese, rendering yearly
unto him and his heirs, for the plot of land and common, three
shillings at Michmas and our Lady.
In the 4th Edw. II. a deed was made by Thomas de Kerde-
ston, Archdeacon of Norfolk, reciting that Sir William Roce-
line, Knt. and Joane his wife, had enfeoffed him and his heirs of
the manor of Aldeby, with the appurtenances, and of the ad-
vowson of the moiety of the church of St. Matthew de Thorpe,
whereby he did covenant and agree to make a refeoffment, and
to levy a fine of the said manor and advowson, whereby Sir
William Roceline and Joane his wife, should have an estate for
their lives in the said property, and after their decease, that the
same should remain unto William le Marshal and his heii*s,
and he bound himself in 2,000/. sterling for the doing thereof.
By several leases granted in the reigns of Philip and Mary,
and Elizabeth, it appears that the lands in this parish were let
at a rental of about one shilling per acre per annum ; a conside-
ration was, however, sometimes given for a long lease. For
some further account of the parish of Aldeby, see the Gentle-
man's Magazine for 1833, vol. CIII. n. p. 503.

HADISCOE THORPE, IN CLAVERING HUNDRED.
An union was made in the 35th Edw. III. by Thomas Bishop
of Norwich, and confirmed by the Prior and Convent of Nor-
wich, of the two several moieties of the church of Haddiscothorp,
which had two several incumbents in it, ofone of which moieties
John de Mowbray and his ancestors had been patrons, and
William de Morley, Marshal of Iieland, and his ancestors had
been patrons of the other moiety ; and the said patrons, and their
heirs, were, after the death of the incumbent, to present unto
the whole church in turns, and John de Mowbray was to have
the first turn, and William de Morley was to liave the other
turn, and so a presentation to be made perpetually by turns.
WIVETON, IN HOLT HUNDRED.
There is a custom that the lord of Wiveton Ducis, or Stafford
manor in this parish, hath a bushel of coals, salt, or any other
measurable thing, of every ship thatdoth unload within the pre-
cinct of that manor, and the same ship was to be unladen by the
lord's bushel, and no other, for no other was to keep a bushel,
and the bailiflf had twopence for weighing every weigh of salt.
There was paid for every English ship, other than those of the
same port, four pence for anchorage, and for every alien ship
eight pence.
The lord was to have of every island ship, a warp of fish of
his own choice, that is to say, one ling and one cod, if the ship
was stored with both, if but with one, then a warp of that it
was stored with.
The lord is to have of every ship's loading of fish dried upon
his ground, a warp of fish for composition.

CHURCH-NOTES IN THE HUNDRED OF CRONDALL, HAMPSHIRE.
ALDERSHOT.
This Church, dedicated lo St. Michael, consists of a nave and
chancel. It was cieled in 1725, according to an inscription on
the north wall of the nave. The royal arms are of the date of
1717, and nearly obliterated. The register commences in 1592,
but the earliest volume is a mixture of loose leaves put together
without regularity, though not in bad preservation. The east
window of the chancel is of three trefoiled lights with trefoiled
headings. There are four windows of two trefoiled lights each,
two on the north and two on the south side. Those to the
west are plain ; those to the east have an ogee-head to the tre-
foil. The nave has, on the north side, one single trefoiled win-
dow, and another of two lights cinquefoiled. The south side has
a window of two lights cinquefoiled, and another of two lights
trefoiled. The font is modern, and of wood.
Exterior. — The dripstones to the windows are quite plain.
There is part, still remaining, of an ornamented ridge-tiling
to the roof of the nave. It is engrailed and pierced, and has
a pleasing effect. The porch on the south side is plain, and
has been modernised. The tower at the west end is built of
the brown sandstone of the country, with brick copings, and
much modernised, though not in an unsightly manner, if a small
clock-tower of wood be excepted. There is an old rude stone
near the porch, perhaps part of a tomb, or cross, now apparently
used as a seat. The church is prettily situated on a hill, near
which is a fine view towards Farnham and the Holt Forest. It
is a perpetual Curacy with a stipend of 15/. per annum.
Chancel. — Against the east wall, on the north side of the
communion table, is a slab of white marble, inscribed to the
memory of John Allden, who died January 2, 1829, aged 69.
Near the above is a brass plate, within an alabaster border, or
frame, engraved as follows : —
" Morire mundo, vivas Deo."

Underneath are three shields. Surmounting that in the centre
is the Crest : viz. a lion's head erased quarterly guttee in each
quarter. Arms : Per fess, a pale counterchanged, three roundels
barry wavy of six, 2 and 1, and three lion's heads erased, 1 and
2, IVhite. Motto: " In God is my trust." The dexter shield
has the same coat, impaling a chevron between three popinjays,
within a bordure charged with eight bezants, White of South
Wanborough.a The sinister shield has also the same coat im-
paling, on a fess engrailed between three martlets, a cinquefoil
between two pomegranites : meant for Sowday, but there is no
such coat. Under the dexter shield are the names of the follow-
ing children : — Thomas, Robert, William, Benjamin, Benjamin,
Margaret, Mary, and Jane. Under the sinister shield : — John
and Thomas. Katharine. Below is this inscription : —
" Here under lyeth buried y^ body of Syr John Whyte,'»
■ The blazon of these coats is, — Per fess azure and or pale counterchanged, three
roundels barry wavy of six, argentand vert, 2 and 1, and three lion's heads erased,
gules, 1 and 2. Crest, a lion's head erased quarterly azure and or gutt^e in each
quarter counterchanged, White of Aldershot. Argent, a chevron gules between
three popinjays vert within a bordure azure charged with eight bezants, White of
Wanborough, the first wife of Sir John White. The second wife was daughter of
John Sowday, of London.
^" There were three knights of this name living nearly at the same time, and all
bearing totally diflferent arms. 1. The Sir John abovementioned. 2. Sir Thomas
of South Wanborough, his brother-in-law : and 3. Sir Thomas the founder of St.
John'8 College, 0:^ford, who was Lord Mayor a few years before Sir John White's
mayoralty. The will of Sir John was proved in 1573. He describes minutely the
place where he desired to be buried, viz. on the north side of the chancel, and that
a plate of brass should be put up, " with the border of alablaster stone already
made for it." He mentions his wife Dame Katharine : his sons Robert, William,
John and Thomas, and his daughter Katharine. He also mentions his daughter
Offley, andhis daughter, deceased, the wife of Laurence Hussey,and a brother Ro-
bert White, of Farnham ; but whose name does not appearin the pedigree of W^hite
in Vincent'8 Hants. CoU. Arm. 130. Sir John is mentioned by Stowe, as of the
Company of the Grocers, Sheriflf in 1556, and Lord Mayor in 1563 ; and further,
as having been buried at Aldershot in 1571 ; which date, it will be seen, is erro-
neous. The pedigree of White, as given in Manning and Bray, is not very
accurate. That in Vincent includes the two families of Aldershot and South Wan-
borough, who were doubly allied by marriage, Sir John having married the
sister of Sir Thomas White, of South Wanborough ; and Sir Thomas having mar-
ried Sir John's sister. They do not deduce their origin from a common ancestor,
although each traced to a connexion with Farnham. The alliances of the Wan-
borough branch were of a higher order, and it is proposed, hereafter, to

seven sons and six daughters. Above her is a shield bearing the
coat of Tichbome, viz. Vaire, a chief or, impaling, Quarterly, Ist

spoken of by Camden, as " volgariter doctos, et poetica facultate, at ferebant
tempora, tolerabilis," bore for his arms, Per chevroa embattled argent and gules,
three roses coanterchanged, on a chief of the second three hoor-glasses of
the first. He died in 1588.
^ A notice of this gentleman'8 decease in 1812, is in the Gent. Mag. voL
LXXXII. u. 674.
* The descent of Tichbome in Manning and Bray, vol. iii. p. 177, is erroneoos.
It is there stated that the manor of Tongham went to Sir Walter and Mary Tich-
bome, and " from them it descended to Benjamin their son, who died in 1660 or
1661, leaving Francis his son and heir." Francis was the yoonger brother, and not
the son, of Benjamin. The disposition of the arms on this monument is remark-
able : the coat of Foster being excluded. The coat of Bradley was borae quarterly
with that of Foster by the mother of Mary Tichbome ; this latter being, Sable, on
a chevTon engrailed argent three pellets. See Vincenfs Hantfl. ColL Arm. 130.

the other Tichborne impaling White. The inscription is as

is stated inVincent's Hants, 158, to have had by his wife Ellen a daughterWyburga;
but, by the pedigree in Register of Baronets, 4. 149, in CoU. Arm. he appears to have
left only a daughter, Ampliillis, wife of Laurence Hyde, son and heir of Sir Laurence
Hyde. The male issue of Sir Richard Tichborne, by a second wife, became extinct
in 1743, when the grandfather of the present Baronet, who was great-grandson of
Francis and Susanna Tichborne of Aldershot, succeeded ; and by his marriage
with Mary the daughter of Michael Blount, Esq. of Maple Durham, by Mary-
Agnes, eldest daughter and coheir of Sir Henry Joseph Tichborne, of Tichbome,
brought the blood of the elder branch into his own line.

University of Oxford ; ihe two last kind and charitable to their
poor neighbours."
' The ma^ificent bequest of this gentleman to the University of Oxford, hia
consequent association with Judge Blackstone and his Commentaries, not forget-
ting his own learned work, have insured an immortality to his name as long as
England shall be a civilised conntry. The compiler of Chalmers^s Biographical
Dictionary, in stating that he died at his house at Aldershot, adds, " at wbat age
we know not." The monumental inscription corrects this omission ; as it likewise
does the not unnatural guess of the compiler, viz. " that he was of the professioa
of the law may be supposed."
In the preface to the I3th toI. of the folio edition of the Abridgements (which
was the first volume published) is the following passage : " The commencement of
this work was writ in the present century, at which time I was admitted a mem-

the Courts of Westminster." According to the entries, Mr. Viner was admitted
27 Nov. 1700. In Bridgeman'8 Legal Bibliography, p. 351, it is stated that, not
only was the work printed at Aldershot, but that the paper was manufactured

boss. The compartment over the communion table has a similar
groining, but the boss is an Agnus Dei.
The east window is entirely gone, having been replaced by a
frighiful modern light. Against the north wall are vestiges of
two windows, one a single lancet, the olher appearing to have
been a double one. Both the south windows are of a very late
date, and common character.
The nave is separated from the side aisles by four circular
arches resting on circular columns with enriched capitals ; six
have the fan moulding, the rest are foliated.
The clerestory windows are, on the north side, four lancets
with small columns and fan capitals; on the south side there are
three, but irregular, without columns, and in part blocked up.
There is a plain string-course on either side. The west wiiidow
is modern ; of the ancient one two small columns with foliated
capitals remain. The south aisle is parted off at its easlern
extremity for the pews belonging to Ewshot estate. At the east
end of the north aisle, and on the south side, is a piscina with a
plain ogee arch. The royal arms, on the west side over the central
arch, are dated A. R. 1703. The font is rude and simple.
The original lovver no longer exists. The present tower,
built of brick, stands on the north side of the chancel, and was
erected in 1659 at a cost of 312^. 15s. 8d.
The north door of the aisle is Norman, with a zig-zag and
nail-headed moulding. Thedoor at the west end is also circular,
with a plain moulding, having a face in the centre. The door
on the south side is now blocked up.

3. Or, on a chevron gules three . . . . or, between three

4. Or, a lion rampant argent, holding a dragon vert, per-

* The anns on this shield are very confused. Instead of being Rivers impaling
Colnet, the first is a quartering of Love ; the third the maiden arms, viz. Colnet ;
and the fourth doubtful. In the pedigrees of Colnet and Love in Vincent 130,
CoU. Ann. this lady appears under the less euphonious name of Dousabella.
Bamabas Colnet was of Combley in the Isle of Wight, and had several children by
his wife Elizabeth, the sister of Sir Richard Mills. The charges of the chevron in
the coat of Colaet are beyond the reach of heraldic description.

where he professed it, and never professing it but where he
thought it was truly deserved ; at last, after he had wisely enjoyed
an easy fortune in a happy retirement, having had but one day's
illness, he fell asleep. This monument was erected by Henrietta
Walraven, in memory of her dear husband Peter Walraven,
whose desire was, at her decease, that she should be laid in
the same vault by him. He died December the lOth, 1737,
aged 62."
Against this wall, is a small canopied monument of Purbeck
marble ; three brass shields, formerly in the upper pannelling,
are gone ; as are those in the pannelling below. Under the
canopy is a shield bearing ten roundels, surmounted by the

figures of a man and woman kneeling; behind him are the
figures of five sons ; behind her are those of eight daughters.
The brasses of the man and of the daughters alone remain.

This Church, dedicated to All Saints, consists of a nave and
chancel. The chancel is separated from the nave by a screen
of no early workmanship, and the royal arms on the chancel
screen were renewed in 1815.
On the floor is the entrance to a iarjje vault.
The east window is plain, square-mullioued, with eight lights.
On the north and south side are modern ill-shaped wooden
windows. The font is not deservins: of notice ; and the windows
of the nave are, with the exception of two broad lancet lights,
poor and modern.
There is a plain modern tower of wood, with a low slated
spire, at the west end, repaired about nine years ago.
On the south side of the nave ure the remains of a small
Norman door with a plain billet moulding. There is also on
this side a door communicating with the chancel, of the time of
Henry the Eighth.
On the northside of the nave is a wooden porch of open cinque-
foil-headed pannelling, restored in parts at a recent date. The
door within exhibits good remains of Norman work, viz. foliated
capitals to the columns, and a nail-headed moulding to the arch.
The chancel has two different roofings ; the western division
running at right angles to the roofing of the nave, and of the
eastern part.
On the north side of the churchyard is a monument to Ed-
WARD Barnard KiNG, Captain in the 34th foot, who died Jan.

This Church, dedicated to AU Saints, consists of a chancel,
nave, and south aisle, or chapel.
The chancel is lighted by two very narrow lancets at the east
end, and one on the north and south side of a similar character.
It is is separated from the nave by a wooden screen, of compara-
tively modern date, but exhibiling traces of the time of Henry
ihe Seventh or Eighth.
The nave is separated from the south aisle by a pointed arch,
resting on low circular columns with plain capitals. The west
window has two trefoil lights with a quatrefoii heading.
On the north side are three windows : 1. A very narrow lan-

The south aisle has an east window of three broad lancets.
The south side is lighted by two trefoil windows. Between
the east window and the nearest of the south side windows, is a
good trefoiled niche under a foliated canopy.
The font is plain and circular.
The register commences in 1561, and is in very good preser-
vation. Amongst the volumes is a remarkable one of date
between 1680 and 1753, containing entries of burials, certifyed
by the signs manual, and in some cases attested by the seals, of
the magistrates, that the parties were buried in woollen. The
nanies of St. John, Cope, Pitt, Jervoise, Tilney, Tichborne, and
Brocas, with many others, may be noticed.
The church is smali, with a low wooden tower in the centre,
having alow spire of shingles. The south porch is plain. On the
south side is a pointed arch door. There are, in the church-
yard, two yew trees of large dimensions. It is a Perpetual

This Church, dedicated to St. Peter, consists of a nave, chan-
cel, and south aisle.
The chancel is lighted at the east end by three lancet win-
dows, that in the centre being the taliesL On the north side
is a single lancet window, the second being closed up. The
south side had three lancets, all now closed up. The font is
perfectly plain, and is placed within the communion rails. The
north door has been closed up ; but the south door is still used.
There is a an achievement with the coat and crest of Wyndham.
The nave is separated from the south aisle by four pointed
arches, resting on low octagonal columns with plain capitals.
On the north side is a window of two cinquefoil-headed lights, a
similar window with a square heading of four trefoiled lights,
and a double lancet.
The royal arms are of the date 1 660.
The south aisle has an east window of three ogee-headed
lights. On the south side are a small double lancet and
three windows of two cinquefoiled lights, two being under ogee
canopies.
The floor within the communion rails has some figured tiles,
principally stags, lions, and fleurs-de-Iys.
Under the south window of the chancel is an hexasronal
stoup, with a circular place for the bread adjoining.
On the south side of the exterior, is a door to the aisle now
closed up. The north porch has a circular door witb remains
of a billeted moulding within a beading. The tower is modem,
and of wood. There is a lych gate. The date seen upon it by
Mr. Caley ■ in 1794 (viz. 1625) no longer exists.
* A partial acconnt of this charcb, with the monumental inscriptions, is given
in the meagre Historj of Hampshire, publisbed under tbe name of Mr. Wamer. It
was derived from a commonication sent, tbe year preceding (1794) to the Gentle-
man'8 Magazine by the late John Caley, Esq. F.S-A. [See Gent. Mag. toL LXIV.
part n. p. 98-t.] A note of tbis monoment, but not the inscription in foll, is
there giyen. The arms, now obliterated, are stated to bave been " Or, on a
cheTron sable three bird^ erased," (meaning, it is presumed, eagle'8 beads erased)
'* argent ; crescent for difference, impaling Arg. two bars, for Goodwin." Dean
Goodwin was Member for Blechingley in the reign of Charies tbe Second.

Chancel.— Against the north wallisa marble monument sur-
mounted by an urn, with this inscription : —
" Near this place lies interred the body of Walter Phillips,
late of this parish, gentleman, who married Katherine, one
of the daughtersof Dean Goodwin, of Blechingly, in the county
of Surrey, Esq. They lived in happy wedlock for the spaceof33
yeares, and had fbur children, three of which died young. The
said Walter Phillips departed this hfe the lOth of April 1715,
in the 80th year of his age.
Psalm 73, v. 26.
" A state like mine thine own is sure to be,
Redeem the time that swiftly flies from thee."
" Here also lies buried the said Mrs. Katherine Philups,
who came to mingle with his beloved dust, y^ 17th May 1718,
in y^ 67th year of her age."
On the north side is also a large cokmin of white marble,
surmounted by a phiin urn of the same material, standing
within a sort of niche of black marbie.^ It has no inscription,
but on the top is a shieki bearing, on a bend cotised three
fusils, Ryves, impaling a fess between three crescents, Lee.
^ Mr. Caley calls this a mural monument, though it can hardly be so styled,
and gives the following inscription. This is now no where to be found, and is
Bupposed, in all probability, to be on a slab below, concealed by the pews : —
♦• Memorise sacrum. Here lieth the body of Sir Richard Ryves, Knt. Sheriff
and Aldernian of London, who was born in the county of Dorsett, descended of an
ancient and gentile family of that name in the said county. He married Joyce, the
daughter of Henry Lee of London, merchant ; the piety of which relict lady hath
erected this monument to the memory of her dear deceased husband ; intending,
when she shall lay down her earthly tabernacle, to make her bed in the same grave,
there to rest with him in hope of a joyful resurrection. He departed this life ia
the 60th yeareof his age, Aug. 23, in the year of the incarnation of our Saviour
Christ Jesus, 1671." He was of the Drapers' Company, and Sheriff in 1663.
In his will, proved in 1671, he mentions his wife, and his late brother John Ryves,
of Kensington, deceased ; John the only son of his late brother ; and Christian
and Lettice, his brother's daughters ; also his sister Eleanor Staveley and her
children. He calls his seat at Yately " Hall Place," and leaves 50/. to be laid
out in land, the rents to go annually to the poor of Yately. It thus appears that
there was a double connexion between him and the Helyar family, and he may pos-
sibly have been the Sir Richard mentioned in the pedigree of Ryves of Damory
Court by Hutchins, as nephew to Bruno Ryves, Dean of Windsor in 1660. Th©
pedigree of Lee is in Coll. Arm. C. 24.

came extinct at his decease ; but the statement of Mr. Caley, copied by Wamer,

which commence, however, from an earlier period, viz. the year 1 607 :
but no entries occur between the years 1645 and 1661. It is evident
from the heading prefixed that they refer chiefly to such whose parents
were connected with the church, or Uved within the verge thereof.

David, son of Malcolm Canmore King of Scotland, to whom
King Henry the First gave the Earldom of Huntingdon, which
their son also enjoyed in prejudice to her eldest son hy thefirst
husband. The second daughter of Earl Waltheof was Alice as
in the text ; but Dugdale has mistaken with respect to the wife
of Robert, son of Richard de Tonbridge, who was grand-daugh-
ter of Earl Waltheof, being the daughter of Maud Countess of
Huntingdon by her first husband, and like her mother named
Maud. a

Maud, the wife of William de Albini, was not the widow of

the reference itself will shew.
The marriage of Robert FitzRichard with Maud de St. Liz
took place in 1112 ; his death in 1132, and hers in 1140, as the
Chronicle of Dunmow shows. ^
Note. There is much confusion in the text in describing the
inheritance of this honour amongst the descendants from Maud
the daughter of Earl Waltheof by her two husbands, who seem
to have enjoyed something like an alternate succession.

P. 377, 1. 61, qfter « heirs." This account of Philip and of
his marriage and issue is very imperfect, and requires explana-
tion and enlargement.
It appears upon the division of his property amongst his co-
heirs, that he possessed one entire Barony in his own right,
called Marmioriy and a moiety of another by marriage in right
of Joan his first wife, youngest of the two daughters and coheirs
of Hugh de Kilpec, whose entire Barony called Kilpec had been
formerly divided between the said Joan and her elder sister
Isabella, wife of William Wah*ond : by this Joan he had issue
three daughters, and surviving her he married a second wife
named Mary (but of what family has not been ascertained) by
whom he had a fourth daughter called Joan. Upon his death
a^. 20 Edw. I. the lands belonging to the Barony of Marmion
were divided between all the four daughters, but of the moiety
of the Barony of Kilpec the youngest daughter had no share.
In the partition of the jBarowy o/^ilfameow, that is to say, of
the lands whereof that Barony was composed,
Joan, the eldest daughter, then wife of William de Morteyn,
had one portion ;
Joan, daughter of Mazera the second daughter (who had
died before her father), anolher portion ;
Maud, the third daughter of Philip, and then wife of Ralph
le Boteler, a third portion ; which three portions were delivered
to the respective parties, being all of full age ; but the fourth
portion, that of
Joan the youngest daughter, was retained in the King's hands
on account of her minority, she being then only eight years old.
Of her more hereafter.
The castle of Tamworth, which was the Caput Baronia, be-
longed to Joan de Morteyn as the eldest coheir, according to
ancient custom. She paid twenty-five pounds for her relief,

de Rege in capite die quo obijt," and at the same time twenty-
five marks as the eldest daughter and one of the coheirs of her
mother Joan de Kilpec, for relief of the portion belonging to
her of the laiids and tenements which the said Philip her father
held by ihe law of England at the tinic of his dealh as of the

inheritance of the said Joan de Kilpec his wife, viz. of the first
third part of a moiety of a Barony whicli had belonged to Hugh
de Kilpec, father of the said Joan, " quae Baronia integra partita
fuit inter Isabellam quee fuit uxor VVittmi Walerond et eamdem
Johannam," as daughters and heirs of the said Hugh.
Joan de Morteyn, the eldest daughter, dying without issue, as
above stated, her portion came to be divided, and in the division
the Caput Baronia of Marmion passed to the eldest of the three
other coheirs, viz. to Baldwin Freville, in whose male descend-
ants it continued till aP. 6 Henry V. when the last Baldwin Fre-
ville died without issue, leaving three sisters his coheirs, Eliza-
beth, wife of Thomas Ferrers, Margaret, wife of Hugh Wil-
loughby, * and Joice, wife of Sir Roger Aston, from all of whom
there is abundant issue. In the partition of lands Elizabeth
Ferrers, as the eldest coheir, again took the Caput BaronicBy
Tamworth casile, and it is now (1817) possessed by George
Marquess Townshend, her lineal descendant and heir.
Joan, the youngest coheir of Philip Marmion, and his only
daughter by the second wife, proved her age sfi. 27 Edw. I. (E^c.
de eod. anno.) She married first to Thomas de Ludlowe, who
died a°. 7 Edw. II. and secondly to Henry Hillary, and had by
the first a son named Tfiomasy and by the second a son named
Edward. As the issue of the first still flourishes in abundance,
it is not necessary for the present purpose to follow the line of
the second. Her son Thomas Ludlow left an only daughter,
Margaret, his heir, who married to Sir John Dymoke, Knt. who,
possessing in her right the manor of Scrivelsby in the county of
Lincoln, claimed in that right to exercise the ofBce of Champion
at the coronation of King Richard the Second, and was adjudged
by the Court of Claims to perform it accordingly. Her pos-
terity continues in the name of Dymoke lo this day, but I am
not quite sure that the inheritance did not pass out of the male
line about the time of Charles the Second. ^

having had issue three sons, Sir Bdward, Robert, and Nicholas. Sir Edward had
an only son Cbarles, who died unmarried at Oxford in 1644 ; and at the Coronation
of Charles the Second, 1661, Edward, son of Nicholas, elaimed the right to serve
the office of Champion aa heir male, and being seised of the manor of Scriveltby,
in which he was successful on account of his being actually aeittd of the said
254 ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE.
N.B. The descenclants of this Joan liave a third interest with
those of FreviUe and Boteler in the Barony of Marmim, but no
share whatever in the moiety of the Barony of Kilpec, not being
descended of the mother by whom that moiety canie.
For this Barony of Marmion there are no writs of summons
to Parliament ; indeed the only person who enjoyed the Barony
entire died before any regular records of Parliament are to be
found.
It is proper to observe, that, although the daughters of Philip
appear always to have been considered as his heirs, and to have
shared his possessions, yet he had a son named Robert, who sur-
vived him, and whose issue remains to this day. The proof of
his existence is this : An inquisition was taken at Tamworth,
8 Jan. ao. 20 Edw. I. in which the jury say& that PhiHp Mar-
myon had the manors of Pyricroft and Glascote (co. Warw.)
with their appurtenances, by gift of the King, according to the
dictum of Kenelworth ; that Glascote is held in chief of Maud
de Chnton, who disputed the right witli Philip, whereupon it
was agreed that Maud should grant to Phihp the wardship and
marriage of Isabella, daughter and heir ofGiles FitzRalph (late
tenant of Glascote) until she should become of age ; that Philip
conveyed this grant to Robert Marmion his son, who made her
his wife ; that, when Isabella came of age, her husband and she
claimed the said manors from Philip before the justices itinerant
at Warwick ; Phihp appeared and acknowledged their right,
and therefore, upon the death of Philip, the said manors ought
to go to said Robert and Isabella, and her heirs, quit of the heirs
manor ,- but there was a counter-claim for Robert Heywood, (the grandson of Ro-
bert Dymoke, elder brother of Sir Edward's father Nicholas,) as heir general. Here
then would be found the heir of the Barony of Marmion, (unless the issue of Hey-
wood is extinct,) if a Parliamentary Barony had existed in Philip Marmion, who
died 20 Edw. I. Sir Edward Dymoke, lord of Scrivelsby, to whom the Cham-
pionship was adjudged, died in 1663-4, having had issue three sons, Sir Charlet,
Edward, and John. The line of Sir Charles failed in 1760. Edward died in 1694,
and was in 1817 represented by Mr. Dymoke Wells. John died in 1668, and was
the ancestor of John Dymoke, Esq. who, being seised of the manor of Scrivelsby,
performed the office of Champion at the coronation of King George III. in 1761.
His son Lewis Dymoke, Esq. in 1814, claimed the Barony of Marmion as apper-
tenant to the tenure of Scrivelsby, and the claim was opened before the Com-
mittee for Privileges in 1816 ; but no adjudication has been made upon it.

held of the King by the service of finding " Carbonem et Lite-

Circumstances seem to render it probable that he was a natu-

In a pedigree drawn out in 1383 for Sir George Shirley, her
lineal descendant and heir, by Robert Glover, the most learned
and skilful herald that ever lived, she is expressly called " soror
uaturahs ultimi Radulphi Domini Basset de Drayton." The
arms ascribed to her being the coat of Basset of Drayton, de-
bruised of a baton sinister. (It is true that Dugdale, in his
grant of Supporters to Lord Ferrers, includes Basset of Drayton
without the baton amongst the quarterings of Shirley, but that
will weigh nothing against the authority of Glover.)

Despenser. — Vol. 1. p. 389.
There seems great reason to doubt whether the Robert De-
spenser here mentioned was the progenitor of this family : the
lands ascribed to him in Domesday were afterwards possessed by
Marmion, whose ancestor he certainly vvas, and not by Despen-
ser. Even from Thurstan the descent can only be traced with
certainty from public records for three or four generations. *i
Hugh, who was Justiciar of England in 44 Hen. \l\. and lost
his life in the battle of Evesham, is the first from whom the chain
of descent can be drawn with certainty. Dugdale states him to
have been son of Thomas, and quotes Glover as his authority :
but upon referring to Glover, Hugh, the son of Thomas, does
not appear to have had any issue, and he (Glover) describes the
falher of the Justiciar thus, " Galfridus Dispensator miles egre-
gius obijt anno 1251, 35 Hen. HI." '
•J See vol. V. p. .'>, for a note respecting the early descent of the Le Despencers,
printed from another part of Mr. Townsend's MSS.
' Mr. Townsend here refers to a pedigree by Glover, with notes, Ph. 29. 227.
and a figure of Sir Hugh Le Despencer on horseback armed, with the following
underwritten in a MS. of Vincenfs (no. 114, 162).

dicted for an assault upon Sir John de Ros, Knt. and striking

P. 392, 1. 9, afier " Earl." In the 8th of Edw. II. " he peti-
tioned the King for his wife's portion of the inheritance of her
late brother, Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester, stating that
by the inquisitions taken after his death in thecounties of Bucks,
Essex, and Northampton, it was found that, unless the Countess
should be pregnant, Alianor, wife of the said Hugh, Margaret,
and Elizabeth, the three sisters of tbe said Earl, were his next
heirs ; by those taken in Oxford, Berks, and SufFolk, that, if the
said Countess should not be pregnant, the said Eleanor, Marga-
ret, and Isabella, were his sisters and heirs. In Wales the
juries said tliey understood that Maud, the Countess, was preg-
nant, and unless she were so, the said Eleanor, Margaret, and
Ehzabeth were his heirs. In London and Hants they knew not
who were the heirs, because it was said the Countess was preg-
nant. InDevon and Herts the jury said positively that Eleanor,
Margaret, and Isabella; and in Dorset, Huntingdon, and Sur-
rey, ihat Eleanor, Margaret, and Ehzabeth, were the heirs. He
therefore claimed that portion of the lands and tenements of
her said brother, which according to the laws and custom of
the kingdom would belong to her as the eldest sister (tanquam
eineciej, and ofFered his homage accordingly. Upon further
inquiry it appeared that there was no such sister as Isabella,
tbat the names of the sisters were Eleanor, Margaret, and EHza-

Scrope, two of the Judges for the King, that, it having been
stated in inquisitions that the Countess was pregnant, the King
could nct do any thing that might prejudice the issue, but would
retain the lands in his own custody until the truth could be as-
certained respecting such pregnancy ; and the claimant having
quoted Magna Carta, which declares, that the King ought not
to refuse, avoid, or delay to do right or justice to any one : the
Judges answered " quod tantum operatur Magna Carta de liber-
tatibus Angliee pro impregnatura prefatse comitissae in hoc casu
quantum pro predictis Hugone et Eleanora ac ahjs jus vendi-
cantibus in hac parte." It was further urged by the Claimant,
that the Earl died on the 30th of June a^. 7, since which day so
much time had elapsed as that, according to the common course
of chiUlbirth " non posset dici a prefato Comite impregnata."
The Judges replied, that they ought not to do any thing injuri-
ous to her pregnancy, that she conceived by the late Earl her
husband, and that from the time of his death " ipsa sensit pue-
rum vivum in ventre suo tempore et die debito et illud inconti-
nenter notificavit Dno Kegi, Dnae Reginee, et alijs magnatibus de
Regno, et nichilominus de hoc quasi per totum Regnum et pre-
cipue in partibus ubi ipsa tunc moram traxit fuit et est pubhca
vox et fama." The business being new and difficult, nor fit to
be decided " sine assensu magnatum de Regno," it was post-
poned to the next Parliament. In the mean time the King
directed a writ of Privy Seal to the Lord Chancellor and the two
Chief Justices, with the assistance of such of the King's Counsel
as were in London, to listen to any further arguments that the
Claimant might think fit to offer, and to lay their opinions and
advice thereupon before his Majesty. Before this tribunal he
urged the chapter of the Great Charter above quoted, adding,
that no one questioned or disputed their right, and requesting
that if the King knew, or was aware of any law, that would ap-
ply against the claim, he would be pleased to communicate it,
that it might be answered. The Chancellor and Judges, after
examining the several inquisitions, and having dehberated with
the rest of the Counsel, reported, tliat it was a business of such
difficulty and rarity that they dare not decide, or even advise
the King upon it, " sine assensu magnatum de Rcgno." On
receiving this report the King appointed tiie first day of the
next Parliament. That Parliament assembled at Lincohi in the
ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE*S BARONAGE. 261
quindenes of St. Hilary &°. 9, where the Claimant renewed his
suit. The said Gilbert and Gefferj', for the King, repeated the
reasons before assigned, adding that, although the birth of the
child (which might by various natural causes have been delayed)
had not taken place, such delay ought not to prejudice the
question of pregnancy, at least so long as the course of nature
did not contradict the supposition of pregnancy, but rather led
to the anticipation of a birth, and that it behoved the King to
save himself harmless at all events. That the Clairaant might,
if he had thought fit, have sued out a writ " de ventre inspe-
ciendo," according to the practice of the Court of Chancery in
similar cases, that the Countess had been at all times ready to
submit to such examination ; this course he had neglected, and
his neglect ought to be visited upon himself, and not suffered to
prejudice the question of pregnancy. The King then appointed
a Committee, consisting of certain Prelates and others learned
in the Civil and Canon Laws, to consider of the business ; but,
they not being able to agree uf)on any final arrangement of so
difficult and so rare a case, a day was appointed in the quin-
denes of Easter for the said Hugh and his wife to appear before
the King and his Council. At this meeting the matter was fur-
ther postponed to ihe next Parliament, where, on Monday after
the feast of St. Nicholas a®. 10, the King's pleasure was an-
nounced, that the Chancellor, the Treasurer, the Barons of the
Exchequer, the Judges and others of his Council should meet to
examine into the business, and, if possible, do complete justice
to the Claimants. At length, after two or three further dis-
cussions, in a convocation assembled by the King's command, in
the quindenes of Easter a<*. 10, before the Archbishop of Can-
terbury and other Prelates, Earls, and Barons, the Lord Chan-
cellor, Treasurer, Justices of both Benches, the Chancellor and

more than a full year after the Earl's death, in correction of

that he held the honour of Wahull for thirty knight's fees in

tified the omission of his ancestors. They were all Barons by
tenure, and by tenure only, and of such [i.e. Barons by tenure)
this volume professes principally to treat ; suffice it however to
say, that the line continued in regular male succession, holding
the Barony or honour of WahuU till the time of King Henry
the Eighth, when Anthony the last Lord died leaving an only
daughier, Agnes, who married to Richard Chetwode, Esq. and
carried the honour into that family. *

ing right to a writ, bnt recommending the claimant from his worth and merit to
the honour of the Peerage. About 1739 Knightley Chetwood, Esq. the lineal de-
scendant and heirof Sir Richard, revived the claim.without any successful result. In

cordingly. The petition was referred to the then Attorney-General Sir Thomas
Denman, who reported thereon in May 1832, and, in concluding his report, ob-
serred, " that, although the fact of the ancient Barons having actually sat in Parlia-
ment had received no direct proof, the argument adduced (stated in the report)
appeared to him to deserve great consideration ; " and recommended that the case
should be referred to the House of Peers. The King was accordingly pleased to

From Domesday Book it appears that the manor of " Stane-
wen^a " was " Terra Regis Heroldi," and so by intention an-
cient demesne.
By a deed without date, remaining in the ledger book of the
abbey of Colchester, it appears that John de Burgo, son and
heir of Hubert de Burgo, Earl of Kent, granted to the Abbat
and Convent of Colchester, and their successors, a tenement and
lands in Stanway that were Roger de Coseber's, and two marks
of free rent issuing out of certain lands there mentioned, in
Stanway and Lexden.
This John de Burjjo made a feoffment unto Thomas de Bel-
hous and Floria his wife, and their heirs, of the manor of Stan-
way, and the advowson of the church, he to render to the said
John, and his heirs, a pair of gilt spurs and sixpence yearly at
Christmas, » and John de Burgo, the son of John the son of
Hugh, confirmed the same. By an office of the time of King
James I. it appears, that the manor of Stanway and capital nies-
suage of Bellhouse, and house of Bastard, were lield of Tiiomas
Lucas, as of his manor of Lexden, by knight*s service, and the
same yearly tenure as above. Thomas de Belhous and Floria
his wife, had issue Thomas, b who had issue Thomas and John ;
and, Thomas dying without issue, the manor descended to John,
as his brother and heir. In the 7th Edw. II. John de Belhous

John de Bello Carapo of the said manor unto John de Belhous
and Isolda, and the heirs of John, to hold of the chief lord ; and
in the 13th of the same reign, a court was held in the name of
Isolda de Belhous.

de Belhous; and in the 16th Ric. II. John de Belhous died,

property to John Stanstead and others, upon condition to make
a feofFment unto Alice his wife during liis life, and after her de-
cease unto the right heirs of the said Sir Thomas and Alice,
who died, leaving issue Joane his daughter and sole heir, and
she died without issue, leaving Isolda, her cousin and heir,
namely, the sister and heir of Thomas, the son of John.
This Isolda married John Casteleyne, and had issue by him
Joane, her sole daughter and heir, unto whom this manor and
advowson descended upon the death of the said John Casteleyne
and Isolda. Joane married Robert Knivett; and John Stan-
stead, with the other feoffees, conveyed this estate unto the said
Joane and her heirs.
In the 2nd Hen. IV. a court was held for the manor of Stan-
way, in the name of John Dorward, and entitled to be his first
court as a purchaser from Robert Knivett. Thomas, c son and
heir of this Robert Knivett, married Eleanor, daughter of the

and the better assurance of the payment of certain annuities
bequeathed by Sir John Swinnerton to his other children, an
indenture of partition was agreed upon in the 20th James I. be-
tween Dame Thomasine, relict of Sir John Swinnerton, and
1 homas, his third son; by which agreement the former was to
inherit one third part of the estates, the property of tlie late Sir

subject to proportionate shares of the said annuities payable to

of Stannaway, and two parts of the park called Stannaway Park,

mouth in the county of Essex.
Morant, ii. 192, states that Sir Henry Calthorpe, then Attorney of
the Court of Wards, was possessed of the niauor of Stanway in 1635.
To this circumstance is to be attributed his formation of the foregoing
historicai abstract. Morant states that the manor passed from Sir
Henry with his daughter in marriage to Hervy, Esq. of Suffolk,
who afterwards sold it j but this is not correct. Sir Henry died seised
of Stanway in 1 637, leaving an only surviving son, and two danghters,
namely, Dorothy, who died in 1 64 1 , and Henrietta Maria (born in 1 636),
who died in 1645, both children. (See Gent. Mag. 1831, part ii. p. 406.)
The family of Dorward became possessed of the manor of
OIiver'sd in this parish, by the marriage of Joane, only daugh-
ter and heir of John Oliver, with William Dorward, Esq. eldest

John, liis eldest son antl successor, by Katharine his first wife,
hacl issue John, who succeeded, and married Blanch, eldest
daughter of Sir William Coggeshall, In the 8th Hen. VI.
letters patent were granted to him for the founding of a chanti*y ;
and the King, in consideration of 200 marks, released by the
said John Dorward, due unto him when he was one of his
councillors, grants his royal license, dated June 2nd, in the same
year, to erect a perpetual chantry at Stanway, of one chaplain
to pray for his soul, and the souls of his ancestors, and to give
and assign unto the chaplain and his successors, a mansion or
place, built by the said John, upon a piece of glebe land con-
taining one acre, adjoining the churchyard of the same church,
and 7/. rent, issuing out of the manor of Stanway and all lands
of the said John in Stanway. He was a Serjeant-at-law and
Speaker of the House of Commons during the above reign, and
resided at Dorward Hall, in the parish of Bocking, the family
seat for many generations, where he founded an hospital, for the
maintenance of which King Henry VI. granted him a license to
assign his inanor of Tendring, with other lands and tenements
in Essex, that were not held of the Crown.
Weever says he died Jan. 30, 1465, and was buried in Bock-
ing church, where Williain his grandfather, and John his father,
had also founded and endowed chantries. WilHam and Richard
Dorward, his sons, married Margaret and Joane, daughters and
coheirs of Sir Roger Harsyck, Knt. on whose death the elder
branch of the Harsyck family became extinct, and the above
William and Richard inherited his property in right of the said
marriage. The former had issue Elizabeth, their sole heir, who
married Thomas Foderingey, of Brockley, in SuiFolk, Esq. ; and
the latter left an only daughter, Margaret, who married Sir
John Wingfield, of Letheringham, in the same county, Knt. «
The interest of this family, in the parish of Stanway, appears to
have ceased in King Henry the Seventh's time.
« This account of the Dorwurds differs from that in Sir Simonds D^Ewes' pedi-
gree before quoted. He states that John Dorward the brother of Elienor Knyrett,
had, among others, a son named William, who, by Emtna his wife, had a daughter
and heir Elizabeth married to Thomas Fotheringay, " qui ex ea genuit suas co-

DESCRIPTION OF AN ANCIENT REGISTER OF THE PARISH OF
ASTON-SUB-EDGE, CO. GLOUCESTER ; WITH EXTRACTS.
In the parish chest in the church of Mickleton in Glonccstershire
there is preserved a parchment volume of quarto size, contaiuing a
Register of Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, from a date so remote as
1339. Notwithstanding the place of its present deposit, the register
belongs evidently to the adjoining parish of Aston-sub-Edge. Indeed
there may yet be traced in verj' pale ink, on the outer cover, the words
" Aston Register," over which, in a later hand, and in darker ink, the
indorsement " Mickleton Register " has been written. The transfer of
the book from the church to which it properly belongs, may be ac-
counted for by the fact that the two parishes were for many vears
served by the same clerg)man, and that he resided at Mickleton.
The early entries iu this register are in a bold German letter, in the
Latin language, and were evidently made with much care and attention.
They are preceded by the following general heading or title :
** Iniunciones invictissimi principis et regis Henrici octavi,
ann° r^ni ei^ 30°. Anno Dom 1539 non tam p parvulis bap-
tizandis qua etiam de nuptiis celebrandis et p corporib^ sepe-
liendis."
The first entry is,
" De Baptismo. Ann° Domini 1539.
1. Inpris Joliannes Baker suscepit sacramentura Baptismi 26°
die mensis Januarii An^ Dom. 1539," &c.
It proceeds thus, each separate entry being numbered, and is exceed-
ingly well kept, under each of its three heads, for the first fifty years.
After this period the entries are more scanty, are ill written, the colour
of the ink becomes fainter, and, in many instances, is scarcely legible.
The marriages and bnrials are headed each with a sort of engrossed
title, ** De Matrimonio," and " De sepultura mortuorum."
After these general reraarks on the volume, a few extracts will not be
wbolly without interest, more especially as tbe Porter family, from
whom sprung Endymion Porter, the faithful attendant of Charles the
First, were for many geaerations connected with the parish of Aston-

sub-Edge. It is indeed traditionally stated that Endymion was himself
born in the manor-house.

These are the only verbatim extracts which I have made ; the follow-
iog is a mere list of names and dates.

Edmund, s. of NichoUis, 30 Dec. 1588.

Philippa, daughter of Nicholas, 29 June 1594.
Cartwright, daughter of Nicholas, 21 Nov. 1596.
Dorita, d. of Nicholas, 23 July 1599.
These are all, or nearly all, the notices of the Porters.
The name of Endymion Porter, though sought for with great dili-
gence, occurs but once, and that in one of the worst written and most
careless entries in the whole book. It is as foUows : —
" Villars f the sonn of Endimion Por?, squire, baptized."
Here, where we could most have wished it, no sponsors' names are
given, nor even a date ; but the notice is preceded and foUowed by two
entries, dated respectively the month of September 1 625, and Septem-
ber 1626.
Of the Overbury family I have extracted the following entries :—
Fol. 1 verso. 12. Elizabeth Ovburie suscepit sacramentum

15. Marie O^burie suscepit sacramentum baptismatf 8». die

die mensf Maii Ano Dom. ut supra [1544 ?].
Fol. 2. 26. Grizigona Ovburie suscep* sacramentu Baptismi
3°. die Maii An» Dom. ut supra [1553].
' The Campden r^;uter goes back no forther than the 3d Oct. 1616.
' I am far from being induced to conclude that this baptism took place at Aston •
sub-Edge. It seems to haye been the custom to record marriages and burials of
persons connected with the parish though solemnized elsewhere. Witness the en-
try of William Porter's burial at Campden.
t There is an evident mistake in regard to the date of the year at these places.
Ten baptisms from No. 7 to 17 are assi^ed to 1544, and the 18th is dated 1651.

In registering marriages of parties, the expression '* susceperunt
sacrameutum matrimonii " is used iu the earlier part of tbe book, and
continued to a period as late as 1 Oth of February 1 602. ^Vhether it
is to be accounted for from the imperfect scholarship of the worthy rec-
tors, or whether the Hght of the Reformation was singularly late in
reaching this retired parish^ I cannot decide.
Tbe first entry among the bnrials is,
** Joh«8 Harris, obiit 16 die mensis Januarii, Ano Dni 1539."
At fol. 4. verso. " Dna Joanna Cradocke vidua sepelitur
13o Decembris Anno Dnn» 1570.
" Tliomas Selier, Rector ecclesiae de Aston Subedge, obiit 20

" Margarett the wife of Thomas Fawset, parson of Aston
Subedge, dyed the 22nd day of January, and was buried at
Norton Underedge the next day, 1624."
No entry occurs from tbe 16th of April 1640 to " the fowerth" day
of December 1661.
" Anna Warburton vidua (olim uxor Christophoro Cragg,
deinde Gulielmo Warburton incumbentibus de St. Bury), sepulta
fuit a maestissimo suo genero Franc^* Mason, et hujus ecctiae
incumbente ; moriebatur Feb. 29, sepulta March 2."
It S4)pears that Mason was strict in tbe exercise of bis jnrisdiction
as to interments in his churcbyard, witness tbe two foUowing entries :—
" Maria Read filia Thomae Read primo in coemeterio Astoni-
ensi fuit sepulta decimo primo die Julii 1673, venia prius petita
et habita a F^ Mason, ibid. incumbente. July 11, 1673."
** Susanna, daughter of Richard Bumpas, sen. was buried in
284 REGISTER OF ASTON-SUB-EDGE,
this churchyard by the permission and appointment where of
Fr. Mason, Recf. March 29, 1683.
" Francis Mason, late Rector of this parish of Aston Subedge,
was buried in the chancell of the said parish. Nov. 24, 1686."
Fol, 1 9, verso, is subscribed : " F. Crewe, Minister et Rector ibi-
dera," and the entry immediately foUowing is dated Sept. 2 1 , 1 686,
two months prcvious to the date of the register of Mason s burial. It
is probable, therefore, that he may have resigned, especially as he is
registered as '• late " Rector.
" The Reverend Mr. John Bloxam, Rector of this parish,
dyed on the 23rd of ApriU, and was buryed on y^ 25th of Aprill
1724, in this chancel."
The Bible, novv used in the reading desk, was his gift, and is thus
inscribed : '* The gift of John Bloxam, Rector of Aston Subedge, Anno
Domini 1713."
" The Reverend Mr. Daniell Slater was psented to this Rec-
tory by Richard Morgan, of , Esq. and inducted into this
parish church by Mr. John Beawne, Recf^ of St. Bury, on the
sixth day of August 1724, in the psence of Richard Graves,
Anth. Bloxam, and John Bloxam."
These two last entries are from the second register, which remains in
the church of Aston-sub -Edge.
Araong the names occurring in the old register, with the notice of
which we set out, the most prevailing is that of Bloxam ; frora 1551 to
1/15 it occurs in every page. At present there is not an iudividual of
that name resident in the parish.
That of Porter is most general after this.
The succession of Rectors, continued from the list in Bigland's Glou-
cestershire, p. 87, is as foUovvs : —
Thomas Lloyd, M.A, presented by Lord Harrovvby in 1782, dicdat
High Wycombe in October 1815. His son Charles Lloyd became
Bishop of Oxford.

The present patron is the Earl of Harrowby, who possesses extensive
property in the adjoining and encircling parish of Weston-sub-Edge. His
Lordships father contributed largely to the rebuilding of the church of
Aston-sub-Edge in 1794, and was instruinental in procuring an Inclo-
sure bill, under which the tithes were comrnuted, by means of an aug-
mentation of the Rector's glebe, which originally contained only 30
acres, 3 roods, 8 perches, to which was then added 73 acres, 23
roods. An allotment of about an acre was made to the parish clerk*
and a piece of ground vested in the churchwarden and overseer, for
the use of the poor. The whole parish scarcely exceeds 700 acres ;
now vested in the following proprietors : The manor and three farms in
John Maxwell Steele, Esq. eldest son of Sir Richard Steele, of Hamp-
stead, co. Dublin, Bart, in right of his wife, Elizabeth-Anne, eldest
daughter and heiress of J. Graves, of Mickleton, Esq. j one farm in the
Earl of Harrowby ; the glebe as above stated ; sundry detached closes of
land in Joseph and John Gardner ; a few tenements and cottages in

TOPOGRAPHICAL NOTICES OF THE PARISHES OF AMPTON,
HARKSTEAD, AND LIVERMERE PARVA, SUFFOLK.
AMPTON, IN THEDWASTRE HUNDRED.
This manor had both freeholders and copyholders belonging
thereto, and there was a Court Baron incident unto the same,
but not a Court Leet. The advowson now is, and always was,
appendant to the lordship, and endowed with the great and
small tithes.
In 21 Ric. II. Thomas Hethe and Richard Hethe released to
Sir William Bardewell, Knt. and Margaret his wife, all their
right and title to this manor and advowson, which they lately
had of the feoffment of John Strange of Brockley, in Suffolk,
which late were Edmonds' of Ingham, in the same county.
The family of le Bole afterwards inherited ; from whom it
passed by marriage to the Cockets, for an account of whom see
Gentleman's Magazine for 1831, pt. i. p. 417.
In the time of Hen. VII. it became vested in the ancient and
illustrious house of Wentworth, and in the third of King Henry
VIII. John Clere, of Ampton, rented of Thomas Wentworth,
of Bury St. Edmund's, parcel of this manor, under ihe following
lease : —

Anciently the lands in this parish consisted principally of
heath and bruery, or sheepwalks. John Clere, the person to
whora the above lease was granted, was owner of a small estate
here, and was son of Edward Clerys, or Clere, a tenant also
of this manor, whose last will and testament is annexed : —
*' In Dei noie Amen. The xxiiij day of January, the yere

In the 12th year of the same reign, the whole manor, with
all the lands, tenements, &c. were leased at 20 marks per an-
num. As this lease differs somewhat from the former, and
shews the terms upon which lands were held at that early period,
we are induced to transcribe it also :

Sir Roger Darcy's name occurs in deeds relating to this manor
in the latter part of the reign of Henry the Seventh. He mar-
ried Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Henry W^entworth, second son
of Sir Iloger Wentworth of Nettlestead, in this county; and
probably held this manor in right of that marriage. Sir Roger
died in 1508, and his widow re-married to Sir Thomas Wynd-
ham, Vice-Admiral, and one of the Privy Council to Henry VHI.
This accounts for their grant of the preceding lease, which, on
the death of Sir Thomas Wyndham, was transferred by the
other parties to Edward Coket, Esq. and held by him and An-
thony his son, until 34 Hen. VIII., when the latter resigned all
claims held by virtue thereof to Sir Thomas Darcy, Knt. son
and heir of Dame Elizabeth Wyndham, now Countess of Bath,
by Sir Roger Darcy, her first husband.
By an indenture dated the lOth June, in the same year, Sir
Thomas Darcy bargains and sells unto John Crofte, Esq. " all
that the manor of Ampton w» thappurtenncC in the countie of
SufF', w» the advoyson of the pishechurche of Ampton, and all
those mesuagys, land^, tenementf, rentf, revcions, and seruicf,
libties of folde, and sliepis pasture, and other hereditaments
and comodities, w* ther appurtennce, in the townes and fildf of
Ampton, Tymworth, Ingham, Lyumer magna, Ly vmer pua, Bar-
ton, and Culford, in the said countie, whiche have ben at eny
tyme byfore the date herof taken or estemed to be eny pt or
member of the said manor whiche the said Sir Thomas at the
date herof hathe in possession or revcon, or in any wyse hathe
right or ys intitled vnto," for which the said John Crofte
" couenntith to paye or cause to be paid to the said Sir Thom"s
the some of fyve himdred markf, twenty pownds s?linge."
It appears by a letter of one Anthony Ashe written unto Wil-
liam Spalding, that this manor with the advowson, in 4 & 5
Phil. & Mar. were holden of the Queen as of the Barony of
St. Edmund, by the fourth part of a knight's fee ; that the mes-
suage called Coket's, forty acres of land, two acres of meadow,
ten acres of pasture, and four acres of wood, were holden of the
298 TOPOGRAPHICAL NOTICES OF
Queen as of the hundred of Blackbourn by fealty; and that
the tenement called the Chantry-house was holden of Ilichard
Codington, * of Ixworth, Esq. by fealty.
This estate continued in the Crofts family until the 42nd Eliz.
when it passed to that of Coell. The indenture by which Fran-
cis Croft, of West Stow, in SufFolk, conveys this manor, advow-
son, &c. to Thomas Coell, of Bury St. Edmund's, gent. bears
date the 6th of September in that year.
Mr. Coell resided upon his estate here, and in 1609 married
Susan, daughter of Thomas Jermyn, of Depden, Esq. a mem-
ber of the Jermyn family, who were owners of considera-
ble property at Depden, in this county, which Mr. Coell after-
wards inherited, and where he and his descendants continued to
reside until the death of Thomas Coell, of Depden Hall, Esq.
" Against the north wall of the chancel of Ixworth church, Suifolk, is a tahle
monument, ornamented with shields in panels, and the same shields on brass are
fixed on the wall within a circular arch ahove, together with figures of a man and
hiswife, and the following remarkahle inscription: — " Here lyethe buryed the bo-
dyes of Richard Codington, Esquyer, theFirstTemporallLorde of thisManor of Ip-
worth fsic), after the Suppressyon of tbe Abbye, whiche he had of o' sovereigne lorde
kinge Henrye the eight, in exchaunge for themano' of Codington, now called Non-
suche, in the countie of Surrey, and Elizabeth his wyflfe, sometyme the wyffe of
Thomas Bucknh'm of greate Lyvermeare, Esquyer, which had yssue by the said
Thomas Bucknh'm, John & Dorothe. The said Richard Codington deceasyd the
xxvij day of Maye, in the yeare of o' lorde God, a. M'ccccclxvij. and the said Eliza-
beth deceasyd the viii day of September in the yeare of o' lorde God M'cccclxxj."
(This inscription is imperfectly printed under the parish of Snetterton in Blome-
field's Norfolk, i. 425, and is there erroneously stated to be in Great Livermere
church.) The brasses, containing the figures, are eleven inches high. The parties
are represented kneeling before desks, with their hunds in prayer ; the man bare-
headed, in a gown furred in front, and having a high collar of fur, and long hanging
sleeTes. The lady in a close cap, small ruff, and full shoulders of the fashion of
her day. The first coat is " cvdington " [Gules,] a cross [or] fretty [azure] ;
the second " cvdington & ienovr," the impalement being, [Or] on a cross en-

Surrey, ii. 598, erroneously styles this person Sir Richard de Codington ; there is no
doubt, however, that he was the representative of an ancient family in that county,
deriving its name from the manor and parish of Cuddington, and that he was tempted
by the offer of several valuable manors in the eastem counties, to relinquish his an-
cestral domain to King Henry theEighth, who erected thereon his far-famcd palace
of Nonesuch. (See the Gentleman's Magazine, New Series, vol. VIII. p. 135.)

Coell, of Ampton, gent. grants to Wiiliam Whettell, of Thet-
fbrd, Esq. the manor, advowson, &c. of Ampton. He was the
eldest son of Wiiliam Whettell, gent. citizen and raerchant-
taylor, of St. Peter*s Hill, in the parish of St. Peter and Bene-
dict, in PauFs Wharf, London. In 1587, Robert Cooke, Esq.
Clarenceux King of Arms, grants him the following coat ar-
mour, namely, Gules, a chevron ermine between three hound's
heads erased or ; and for his crest, On a wreath argent and gules,
a hound's head couped or, the ear and collar argent.
In or about 1600, Mr. Whettell married Anne, relict of
Eustace Tyrreli of Boyland Hall, in Bressingham, co. Norfolk,
and resided at Thetford until about 1619, when he removed to
his estate in this parish. He served the oflBce of SherifF for this
county in 1622, and continued to reside here until his death,
which took place Feb. 19, 1628; and his remains were deposited
in the cliancel of Ampton church, on the north side of which is
a handsome mural monument, bearing the following inscription
to his memorj' : —
*' Mihi Christvs est in vita et morte Ivcrvm.
" Hic jacet corpus clarissimi viri Gvlielmi Whetteli, armi-
geri, qui fuit in adolescentia optimis disciplinis enutritus, in

" Henricus Calthorpe, armiger (qui duxit in uxorem Doro-
theam neptem suam) solus executor dicti Gulielmi et illi devinc-
tissimus, posuit hoc monumentum."
Mr. Whettell died without issue, and the said Henry, after-
w^ards Sir Henry Caltnorpe, inherited this property ; for an ac-
count of whom, and his descendants, see Gentleman's Magazine

300 HARKSTEAD AND LIVERMERE PARVA, SUFFOLK.
HARKSTEAD, IN SAMFORD HUNDRED.
Robert Whettell, gent. brother of the above Winiam Whet-
tell, of Ampton, Esq. married Margaret, daughter and coheir of
George Sampson, gent. owner of an estate and manor called
Netherhall, in Harkstead, which property Mr. Sampson de-
vised to Margaret his wife, during the minority of George his
only son, who survived his father only six years, when it de-
volved to Elizabeth, Frances, Susan, and Margaret, his sisters
and coheirs. Robert Whettell and Margaret his wife purchased
the other sisters' shares, whereby they became lawfully seised o*
this estate in fee simple.
He died about 1607, and his widow was re-married to Francis
Colby, gent. Some litigation took place between the widow, her
second husband, and William Whettell, Esq. respecting money
transactions ; which became at length amicably adjusted, by the
sale of the Netherhall estate, in 1618, to Richard Sutton, of
Acton, in Middlesex, Esq.
LIVERMERE PARVA, IN BLACKBOURN HUNDRED.
The family of Croftes had formerly considerable interest in
this parish, and in the 36th Ehz. Thomas Crofts, of Little
Saxham, Esq. grants to Anthony Penning, Esq. in consideration
of the sum of 2,100/. " all that the manor of Lyttle Lyvmere,
called Murryelle, wth th'apptenents, in the county of Suff.

In the 39th of the same reign, Mr. Penning purchased of Sir
John Smith the manor of Little Badow, in Essex. His ances-
tors were early seated at Kettleburgh, in this county; they
bare, Gules, three stag's heads caboshed argent, and a chief in-
dented ermine.

tleburgh, gent. married, first Frances, the eldest daughter of
William Stebbing, gent. and resided at Kettleburgh Hall in
1556 ; by her he had a son John, who died a bachelor in 1591 ;
and a daughter. He married, secondly, Catharine, daughter of
Brook, gent. by whom he had six sons and seven daugh-
ters. He died in 1593, seised of the manors of Brockford and
Colston Hall in Baddingham, and was interred in the chaucel of
Kettleburgh church.
Anthony Penning, Esq. was his eldest son, by his second
marriage. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Crofts,
of Saxham Parva, Esq. He served the office of High Sheriff
for this county in 1607, and was in the commission of the peace
in 1618, when his estate was valued at 1,500/. per annum.
Mr. Penning resided latterly at Ipswich, and, dying there in
1630, was interred in the chancel of the parish church of Sl
Matthew, in that town ; on the north side of which is a hand-
some mural monument to his memory, containing figures of
himself, his lady, and their numerous family. It bears the
following inscription, with some commendatory verses : —
" Here lieth the body of Anthonie Penning. Esq. (sonne of
Arthur Penning, of Ketleberge, in the county of SufFolke, Esq'.)

ON THE ARCHDEACONRY OF ST. ALBAN's ; WITH A LIST OF
ARCHDEACONS FROM 1415 TO 1539, BEING ANTECEDENT TO
THE LIST GIVEN BY NEWCOURT.
The subjoined list of Archdeacons of St. Alban'8 has been collected
froin the Registers of Wills and the Act-books of the Archidiaconal
Court of St. Alban's. The catalogue of the Archdeacons, as given in
Newcourt's Repertoriura, contains no other names, than those which
are to be met vvith in the Register books of the diocese of London, since
the Reformation. The present list carries the account of the succession
in the Archdeaconry as far back as the year 1 tl5, and shews the ex-
tent of the mistake made by Newcourt, when he ascribes the constitu-
tion of the Archdeaconry to the Bishop of London, and assigns no
earlierdate to it, than that of the annexation of the jurisdiction of the
Abbey to the diocese of London in the 4th Edward VI.
It may perhaps be impossible to ascertain, at what tirae the first ap-
pointment of an Archdeacon as au officer under the Abbot of St.
Alban's took place ; we learn, however, from Matt. Paris in Vitis
Abbat. p. 60, ed. 1640, that in 1 129 there was an Archdeacon at St.
Alban'8 named Radulphus, and that during the coutroversy relative to
the Abbey's being exempt from the Bishops of Lincoln (A.D. 1 1 60),
the jurisdiction of the Archdeacon was pleaded in proof of ancient
exemption.

It is proper to remark with respcct to the two Archdeacons whose
names are the last ou the list, Thomas Kingsbury and William Este
that Thomas Kingsbury received a formal appointment as Archdeacon
and Commissary from Robert Catton the Abbot in 1531,butthat in
1536 the uords " Authoritate Regi^" are added to his title ; and that
William Este, whose name stands at the head of Newcourfs list, with-
out notice of the time of his admission, is Arst mentioned in the Act-
book as Archdeacon July 15, 1539, though it does not appear by
whom he was appointed.

I thanke y^ for y»"» of the 6^\ wcb gives mee aduertisem* of

jealousye at this tyme when we have bin soe freshly alarmed
out of Ireland, not w^kjut great probabillitye of a Correspond-

shall & 2 or 3 men wh you & goe in amongst them & know of
them the cause of their meetinge, & if they doe not give yu good
satisfaction, to take a note of their names, letting them know
that they haue given occasion of jealousye by their often & nu-

is signed " Henry Bennett," and directs them " to seize Richard Salway, here-

seize him, or if y" ihinke better (to doe as I did the last tyme I
sent him up) send an order to Capt. Jones to Ludlow to take
some of his Company & seize him & bring hira to Shrewsburye
to bee sent thence, but I thinke y« readyer way will bee to let
4 of yc same Horse that seize hira carrye him streight away ;
they are to bring him to S* Alban's, where S^" Ed. Brett lyes w^

haue order given that hee bee permitted to stay 2 dayes in Lud-

Most of the nobility and gentry throughout the kingdom who espoused
the Royal canse were despoiled of a very considerable portion of their
property, and some of them of the whole, during the usurpation of
Parhament and Cromwell, and nuraerous were the individuals in every
county who in consequence thereof were reduced from affluence either
to great distress or to comparative poverty. And in addition to the
heavy sums in the shape of composition fixed upon tbem for their delin-
quency, as loyalty was then called, Cromwell raised a new and standing
mihtia of horse in every county, the burden of maintaining which he
fixed upon the royaUsts by a tax of decimation, or the tentli of the re-
maining part of their property. Shortly after the Restoration steps.
were taken for the rehef of the numerous officers who had not only
fought and bled in the cause of their unfortunate monarch, but who,
from the circumstances above mentioned, had been reduced to a state of
indigence, and in the 13th and 14tb Cbarlcs II. 1661, 1662, tvvo Acts-
of Parhament were passed for that purpose, the one for " the distri-
bution of tbreescore tbousand pounds amongst tbe truly loyal and indi-
gent Commissioned Officers," &c. and the other for " the relief of poor
raaimed OflRcers and Soulders who have faithfuUy served his Majesty
and bis Royal fatber in the late Wars." By the latter, power was given

REGISTER OF BURIALS IN WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
The Burials in the Ck>llegiate Church of St. Peter, Westminster, are
preserved in the same manuscript from which the Marriages and Baptisms
given in the preceding pages (pp. 162 — 174, and243 — 248) weretaken.
Inscriptions upon the monuments, tablets, and grave-stones to the me-
mory of many individuals vvhose bnrials are here recorded, will be found
in Dart's History of the Abbey, as well as in Neale and Brayley's
History, but a continual reference to the pages of those works would
have extended unnecessarily the notes, which are confined to particulars
identifying the several parties. From the discrepancy in some cases
between the years assigned to the burials and the dates supplied by the
inscriptions frora the monuments or gravestones, as well as from the
number of burials omitted, it is clear that the early part of the register
is a compilation after the Restoration, and contains only such as Mr.
Tynchare states " could be found in imperfect books, and such as have
been carefuUy taken notice of since the happy Restoration of his Ma-
jesty KingCharles the Second" (see p. 162). Mr. Philip Tynchare was
installed 11 Feb. 1660, and his burial occurs in 1673.

Gundred — William .
If Mortiraer were really the brother of Earl Warren, then the
opposite parts they took, as in Dugdale, p. 73, seems to require
some observation.
Dugdale (p. 74) says that Gundred, wife of the first William
de Warenne, was sister of Gherbode, a Fleming (to whom the
Conqueror gave the Earldom of Chester). Watson, and almost
all the pedigrees I have seen, call her daughter of William the
Conqueror, and the charter to Lewes (Watson, i. 25) calls her
the daughter of Queen Maud. I therefore feel something hke
doubt whether she might not have been daughter in law to the
Conqueror by his wife's quondam husband. There appears a
striking distinction in that charter of WiHiam second Earl War-
ren, viz. " pro salute Diii mei Wmi r qui me in Anglicam ter-
ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE. 379
ram adduxit, et pro salute Dne mee Matildis Kegine matris
uxoris tnee^ et p salute Dni mei Will^i R filij sui, &c. Had
William been her father, I can't find any reason for making
such a distinction as that of describing the Queen as the mother.
ergo q.
Brooke calls her fifth daughter of King William, and is not
contradicted by Vincent ; but she is not mentioned in a note
written by Vincent, in vvhich he enumerates five daughters.
P. 82^, 1. 10, after " annum," make a note. The record here
referred to does not prove the fact of a divorce having taken
place ; it only proves that the King had " a la requeste John de
Garenne Counte de Surr. graunte et ottroye q le dit Counte
puisse seure en la Court Cristien et en lieus convenables cause
de divortz vers Dame Johne de Bars nre niece en totes les ma-

agreed to give to the said Joan within a quarter of a year after
such divorce celebrated and pronounced {celehre et pronuncie)
740 marks a year for her hfe out of his lands in the towns of
Graham and Gretwell : but that no such divorce did really take
place has been sufficiently shown already : however, a few more
proofs may be added.
Upon the deposition of King Edward the Second, in the 20th
year of his reign (eJeven years after the permission to sue for the
divorce had been granted), the Great Seal of England was deli-
vered to the Bishop of Norwich (to be keeper thereof) by the
Queen and the Prince, in the Queen's chamber, within the
Abbey of Cirencester, on Sunday in the feast of St. Andrew the
Apostle, in the presence of Roger Mortimer, Joan Countess of
Warren, &c. &c. »
In a grant from King Edward the Third, in the llth year of
his reign, to William Earl of Salisbury of 1000 marks per an-
num, it is expressly provided that the payment of 800 thereof is
to cease at such time as he shall become possessed of the castle
and manor of Troubrigg, and certain other manors which John
de Warren, Earl of Surrey, and Joan his wife held for the term
of their Jives, witli reversion to the said Earl of Salisbury " post
decessum dictorum Comitis Warrene et Joanne." ^

In the inquisition after her death, the jurors say that she held
fcr term of her Ufe, by grant from the King, the manors of Trou-
bridge, Ambresbury, Wintersborne, and Aldeborne, part of the
inheritance of Wilham, son and heir of Wilham de Montacute,
late Earl of SaHsbury. c
It would be waste of time to say any more about a pre-con-
tract with Maud de Nerford, or a marriage with Isabella de
Houland. He married Joan de Bars in 33 Edw. I. She became
his widow and received dower in 21 Edw. III.; she died his
widow in 35 Edw. III.; the lands which the King had given to
her and her husband jointly for their iives, with reversion to
Montacute Earl of Saiisbury, remained in her possession to lier
death, and then passed to Montacute according to the grant.

•* In Watson's Memoirs of the House of Warren, theWarrens of Wirmegay are
made to descend from Reginald, second son of the first Earl Warren ; but a com-
parison of dates will, I think, show that Mr. Watson's position is at least impro-
bable, almost impossible.
The father (according to Mr. Watson) of Reginald died in 1089.
His father-in-Iaw was living 71 years after, in 1160.
The elder brother of Reginald was dead in 1135.
Reginald himself was certainly living 37 years after, in 1172; and probably 50
years after, viz. in 1185, as William his son pays scutage first in 1186.
William, the third Earl, nephew of Reginald, died in 1148.
William, the son of Reginald, 60 years after, viz. 1208.
The descent, as itis drawn by Dugdale, is not liable to any such objection.

P. 89. This article is imperfectly stated, and not according
to the authorities referred to. William de Meschines, uncle
{i. e. brother of the father) of Ralph the first Earl of Chester,
was lord of Coupland by the gift of William the Conqueror.
He married Cecilia de Rumelli, Lady of Skipton in Craven, and
they founded the Priory of Bolton a°. 1 120, e to which they gave
the church of Skipton, with its chapel of Carlton, and all the
town of Emmesey. They had issue two sons, Ralph and Mat-
thew, who both died issueless, and two daughters, Alice and
Avice. Alice was the wife of William Fitz-Duncan (which Dun-
can was a natural son of Malcolm Can-mor, King of Scotland),
by whom she had one son, William Lord of Egremont, and
three daughters, Cecily Countess of Albemarle, Amabilla wife
of Reginald de Lucy, and Alice first of Gilbert Pipard, and
afterwards of Robert de Courtenay. The issue of Cecily will be
found under the title of Albemarle ; that of Amabilla under
LucY. Alice had no issue by Pipard or Courtenay.

Amongst the writs of summons for 6 and 7 Edw. H. are three

only to introduce Baynard amongst the other of Dugdale's
omitted Baronies.

Peers, will be found under their respective titles.
Angus Earldom. — Vol. I. p. 504.
The precise tenure of this as an English Peerage is not as-
certained. The first writ of summons for the Earldom is 25
Edvv. I. and the person then summoned had been previously
called to 23 and 24 Edw. I. only as a Baron, viz. Gilbto de
Umfraville. I do not find any letters patent, nor any other
document prescribing the nature of the inheritance, or limiting
the descent to the heirs male : so that, as far as my information
reaches, it appears to me to stand precisely upon the footing of
a Barony by writ. It passed in regular male succession for
three or four generations, from 25 Edw. I. to 4 Ric. II. till the
death of Gilbert the last Earl, who died in that year. He left
no surviving issue, and the Inquisition post mortem finds Eleanor
Tailboys, the daughter of his sister Elizabeth, to be his heir, and
forty years old. It is, however, quite certain that he had two
brothers, one of whom, named Thomas, survived him six years,
and left two sons. Here then is an instaiice of an Earldom ceasing
without any defect of issue from the first Earl. Thomas above-
named died ao. 10 Ric. II. leaving a son of the same name, 24
years old, and a Knight. This latter Thomas left a son named
Gilbert, and five daughters. Gilbert died without issue ao. 9 Hen.
V. ; but there was still an heir maleof the body of the first grantee
existing in Robert de Umfraville, uncle of the last Gilbert. This
384 ADDITIONS TO DUGDALE's BARONAGE.
Robert died without issue a». 15 Hen. VI. and then, and not
before, the male line becanje extinct. Every one of the four
males above-mentioned was of full age, and competent to take
the succession, at the time when it devolved upon him, but nei-
ther of them enjoyed it. This might be reasonably accounted
for by concluding that the original grant extended, according to
the general practice of that age, to heirs general : but the dignity
appears to have ceased altogether from the death of Earl Gilbert
in 4 Ric. II.
This case seems to countenance an idea which is frequently to
be met with in writers upon Peerage, that the descent of ancient
dignities in general depended chiefly upon the will of the Crown.
MUSARD. — Vol. I. p. 512^.
P. 513, ]. 7, note. The Esc. 1 Edw. I. states Nicholas to be
brother and heir of Ralph, and thirty-two yearsof age. It after-

made proof of his age, and that he died in 17 Edw. I. when the
same Nicholas, his uncle, was found to be his heir, forty years
old, as in the text.

found that about eight years before he died he had enfeoffed
John Lovell, his eldest son, in his manor of Tichmersh, to hold
to him and his heirs for ever ; and that the said John the son was
accordingly seised thereof at the time of his father's death, and
was then twenty-two years old. This John, the son, Dugdale
says, died a^. 8 Edw. II. leaving an only daughter, Joan, his
heir, only two years of age. He then states the second marriage
of the widow, and proceeds thus : " In 8 Edw. III. this last
mentioned John was," &c. Now the John last mentioned in the
text died in 8 Edw. II. and does not appear by the text to have
left any son. We are therefore to seek for the father of this
John who flourished under Edward the Third. Although the
inquisition referred to of 8 Edw. II. finds that John Lovell, then
deceased, held the manor of Tichmersh in his demesne as of fee,
and that Joan his daughter was his heir only two years of age,
and says nothing about a son, yet the pedigrees in the College of
Arms ascribe to him a son John by the said Maud Burnell ; and
the inquisition, after the death of John de Handlo, his mother's
second husband, in a°. 20 Edw. Ill.n states that John Lovell, son
and heir of John, was then living and next heir to the said Maud
by her former husband ; a fact which can in no other way be re-
conciled with the inquisition of 8 Edw. II. but by supposing him
to have been born after his father's death ; and thus the link other-
wise wanting in the regular chain of descent is supphed, and the
text may now be followed.

acknowledged that he had released and quit claimed to the King

one Peter Mallore, who had married RabePs widow, Maud,
alleging error, in that Peter Baudrat, being an alien born in
parts beyond the seas, had no legal claim to any part of said in-
heritance. This plea was overruled, as to Peter Baudrat, because
the King having granted the wardship and marriage of both the
coheirs to EHas de Rabel, whatever EHas did under that grant
must be considered as done by reason of the King's gift ; and
it would be contrary to law to disinherit any one who held
under the King's gift ; therefore Mallore could not recover : and
as Peter Baudrat had surrendered all his right to the King, it was

Note. Since the publication of the number containing Mr.' Towns-

member of the Shirley family, that he does not acquiesce in the state-
ment there made respecting the illegitimacy of Isabel Basset, wife of
Sir Thomas Shirley. The discussion of the question would exceed the
hmit of a note ; but, in justice to the descendants of that marriage, it
is but fair that the following statement, which has been transmitted,
should be here printed, to be read in connexion with that article,
viz. —
Extract from the will of Ralph last Lord Basset of Drayton, from
the great Family Pedigree of Shirley in possession of Earl Ferrers,

moned to Parliament as Earl of Huntingdon, 7 January 1819, and took his seat in

ber 1828, and was succeeded by his eldest son, the present Earl. C. G. Y.

The implied illegitimacy of Isabel Basset appears to rest on the fact
of her son Sir Hugh not being mentioned in numerous inquisitions takea
on Lord Basset's (her brother's) death. This, however, is explained by the
fact of a great part of Lord Basset's lands being otherwise settled by
an old entail, made by Ralph Lord Basset, his grandfather, in the 13th
of Edward III. by which it appears they reverted, on the extinction of
male issue from Ralph Lord Basset, who died in 1313, to the descend-
ants of his sister Margaret.
Glover's pedigree of Shirley at Eatington, made at tbe request of
Sir George Shirley in 15S3, and of which that in the CoUege of Arms
is the draft, calls Isabella Basset, " Isabella soror D'ni Radulfi do-
mini Basset de Drayto7i suefamilie ultimi." On the other hand,
He does not, however, give the quartering of Basset of Drayton
among the Shirley quarterings, but ascribes to her the coat of Basset
of Drayton, wilhout the bar siuister.
I do uot find the coat of Basset of Drayton among the Shirley quar-
terings till about 1630, since which time they have been generally in-
cluded.
The Basset property, touching which Sir Ralph Shirley had a memo-
rable dispute with the £arl of Stafford, remained in the Shirley family
till the death of the last Robert Earl Ferrers in 1827, and was by his
Lordship entailed upon a natural daughter of his son Robert Sewallis,
Viscount Tamworth. This daughter is the present Duchess of Sforza
Cesarini, having married, in 1837, Lorenzo Sforza, Duke of Sforza
Cesarini.

TEMP. ELIZ. WITH THEIR PEDIGREE.
The family of Honing probably dcrived its name from a parisli in
Norfolk, so called. William Honinjy, Esq. who vvas Clerk of the Signet
in the reigns of Henry VIII. Edward VI. and probably Elizabeth, it
may be presumed was introduced into service at Court bv the circum-
stanceof his father beingemployed as fishmonger to the royalhousehold.
The epitaph of the father, formerly in the church of St. Nicholas
Coldabbey, near London-bridge, is thus recorded by Weever : —
" Pray for the soul of Roger Hunning, fishmonger, sometime por-
ueyor of seafish to our Soueraigne Lord King Henry the Eight, and
Margarett his wyff, the which Roger decessyd the third day of May,
An. Dom. M.cccccxli. whos soul Jesu pardon. Amen."
In 1544 Wilham Hunnynge (or Honing) had a grant of the manor of
Carleton in Suffolk. a On the 16th June 1546, he obtained a lease for
twenty-one years of the capital messuage called Gubbins, in the pa-
rishes of North Mimms, Hatfiehi, and Essenden, Herts, at the yearly
rent of 50/. 9s. 8rf. » In 1547 he received from Edvvard VI. a confirma-
tion of certain tenements in London and in Suifolk. c In Feb. 1550
he had a grant of the fee-siraple of the prebend of Cheping Faringdon,
co. Berks, belonging to the church of Salisbury. i^ In 1558, during
the reign of Philip and Mary, he received, in conjunction with (his
brother-in-law) Nicholas Cutler, a grant of the manor of Rishangles in
Suflfolk. e In 1566 he acquired the manor of Manton's in Hitcham,
in Suffolk. f

near, and is almost inclosed by the banks of the river Ouse, and is op-
posite to the new port of Goole. In Johnston's MSS. relating to the
county of York, it is said that the widow of Sir John Girlington (fourth
son and successor of the above Nicholas ) sold Sandhall to Mr. Walter
Blakiston of York. In the Babthorpe pedigree, inserted in Burton's
Monasticon Ebor. this lady is called *' Christian ; " she was the only
child of Sir Williara Babthorpe, of Babthorpe, in the parish of Heming-
borough, near Howden, by his second wife, Frances, daughter of Sir
Thoraas Dawnay, of Sez-hay.

The estate of Sandhall was sold by the said Mr. Walter Blakiston to
Henry Thompson, Esq. one of the Aldermen of York, whose son
Leonard Thorapson, Esq., also an Alderman of York, enjoyed it in
1670.
Previously to the year 1730, Sandhall became the property of John
Scholfield, Esq. whose grandson William Scholfield, Esq. is now (1840)
the owner of and resides at Sandhall.
In a parchment book in my possession (which formerly belonged to
402 ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS.
the family of Hungate of York) containing abstracts of deeds, &c. re-
lating to the farnily of Methara, of Metham, there is the following
entry : —
" Robert Craynes, of Saltmarsh, yeoman^ gives to Sir Thomas Me-
tham all his lands, tenements, &c. in Greenoak, in the parish of East-
rington, in the county of York, which had been lately given to hira by
Thomas Metham for the term of his life ; after his decease to Margery
the wife of Nicholas Girlington, lately the wife of Alexander Metham
for the term of her life ; after her decease to go to William Metham
and his heirs male ; if he dies without such, then to remain for ever
with the heirs at law of the said Thomas Metham. Dated 1 2 Hen. VIII."
Dorchester. James Savagk.
P. 397, note ". Troth, daughter and heir of Grey Jermyn Grove,
Esq. said to be living in 1822, subsequently married the Rev. Richard
Jenkyns, D.D. Master of Baliol CoUege, Oxford, and Prebendary of
Wells, and is still living, one of the coheirs of the Barony of Fitz-
warine.
VoL. VII. p. 41. The term " Cardinars hat" was here employed
unadvisedly. The ensign usually called a CardinaVs hat, is varied so
as to designate the several ranks of — 1. Cardinals ; 2. Patriarchs 3 3.
Archbishops ; 4. Bishops ; 5. Abbats ; and 6. the Prothonotaries of the
Holy See, In modern blazonry, that of the Cardinals alone has /ive
rows of tufts or tassels, making fifteen in all ; the hats of Patriarchs and
Archbishops have four rows, making ten tassels ; those of Bishops three
rows, making six : and those of Abbats and the Prothonotaries two,
making only three tassels. Again, the colour of the Cardinars hat
alone is red ; that of the three next grades green ; and that of the two
last black. Thus there are three varieties of colour and four of tassels.
Of course the hats over the arms of Archbishop Jaraes de Bethune and
Bishop Murray (described in the page above mentioned) are those be-
longing to their respective dignities. The hat on the monuraent of
Bishop 0'MoIony at the Irish CoIIege (see p. 117) is, however, that
which properly belongs to the archiepiscopal grade. — In p. 32 and
p. 34, Archbishop Jaraes de Bethune or Beatoun is inadvertently styled
Cardinal, an inaccuracy which confuses hira with his raore distinguished
kinsman, David, also Archbishop of St. Audrew's.
P. 84. The monument at Charlton is certainly that of Sir Henry
Knyvett. The recumbent figures are under a canopy, which is sup-
ported by Corinthian colurans. The shield of arras and the crest are at
the foot of the monument facing the figures. The shield bears Knyvett
with 18 quarterings, viz. 1. Basset of Weldon ; 2. Bottetourt of Men-
dleshara; 3. Clifton of Buckenham ; 4. Cayley ; 5. Crorawell ; 6. Ber-
nake: 7. Driby ; 8. Tateshall; 9. Albini ; 10. Chester; 11. Lupus;
12. Pickering; 13. Lascelles ; 14. Moresby; 15, 16, 17, and 18,

In p. 142, Mary Lady Roos of Haralake is called great grand-daugh-
ter of Isabella de Orreby, but in the pedigree, p. 143, she is corredly
made great great grand-daughter.

A NEW AND IMPROVED EDITION OF AN
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ANTiaUlTIES,
AND
ELEMENTS OF ARCH^OLOGY,
CLASSICAL AND MEDI^VAL.
BY THE REV. T. D. FOSBROKE, M.A. F.S.A.. &c. &c.
Fifteen years have elapsed since the first publication of this work : and the
Publishers having called on the Author for a new Edition, he has endeavoured
to make it more worthy of the very favoarable reception it met with on its
first appearance. Some of the Chapters have been entirely re-modelled ; and
knportant additions have been incorporated throughout ; which improvements
have been accomplished without difficulty, from the compressed mode in which
the new Edition has been printed ; a form which has been adopted to meet
the demand for cheap and useful books.
THE first Edition of this Work was favourably noticed in all the Reviews ; and
the following selections will enable the Readers to judge of the contents of the volumes
now again submitted to the pubUc.
" Devoted as we are to every pursuit connected with ' olden times,' we cannot but
hail with satisfaction the publication of this long expected work. To descant on its
utility would be altogether unnecessary." — Gent. Mag.
" A valuable book of reference. — The science of Archseology is deeply indebted to
Mr. Fosbroke for accomphshing the double purpose of inducing its study in the un-
learned, and compiUng a valuable manual for the lcEirned. He has explored the mine
of Archseological antiquity, and classed and euranged its products very ably for the
advantage of all who desire to cultivate a science. without an adequate knowledge of
which, no person can deserve the name of antiquary, amateur, or gentleman." —
LlTEKARY GaZETTE.
" A work as original as it is important. — We have so often had occasion to speak
of the talents, research, and acuteness, displayed by Mr. Fosbroke, in his Encyclo-
psedia of Antiquities, that we feel at a loss even to vary the terms of our praise.
Although from the nature of the subject it might be expected to consist of dry details,
and fit only for the antiquary, yet the author has thrown in so many curious illustra-
ti\e facts, that it is really very interesting. It is elegantly written, and full of interest-
ing information, with which every person of liberal education ought to be acquainted.
No good hbreuy ought to be withoutit." — Literary Chronicle.
" Mr. Fosbroke's Work is one of great value and interest. It is arranged in a
classified chronological form, so as to lead the reader, pedeientim, from the base of
Archaeology to its summit.
" After some introductory remarks, Mr. Fosbroke proceeds, in his first Chapter, to
a description of the Cyclopean Masonry, the general style of whichis immense blocks
without cement. Mr. F. then proceeds to notice the Indian, Phenician, orTYRiAN
Architecture.
" In the second Chapter Mr. F. describes Egyptian Architecture, under the
several classes of Temples, Palaces, Tombs, Pyramids, Obelisks, and Colossal Figures.
" Grecian and Roman Architecture comes under consideration in the Third
Chapter ; and in this branch of his subject the Author displays the same diligent re-
searcb, acute remarks, and philosophic views, whilst he brings down the history of
Ancient Architecture in a chronological and scientific order of arrangement. The
Doric, lonic, and Corinthian orders are discriminated ; after which the different kinds
of walling, bricks, mortar, ceilings, windows, floors, and other minute points, are de-
scribed.

" In the Fourth Chapter, the Public Edifices of the Grekks and Romans are
tninutely considered, particularly their temples, theatres (a very curious article),
amphitheatres, aqueducts, bridges, town-walls, gates, acropoles, forums, basilicee,
triumphal arches, baths, barracks, light-houses, and puteals.
" The Private Edifices of the Greeks and Romans form the subject of the Fifth
Chapter. These are minutely and ably described, and illustrated by existing speci-
mens at Pompeii.
" The Sixth Chapter is devoted to the Architecture of the Britons, Anglo-Saxons,
Normans, and English. Here Mr. Fosbroke displays the most elaborate research.
" The Seventh Chapter gives an account of Egyptian, Etruscan, and Greek
Sculpture, including an alphabetical List of Deities, with their different attributes.
" The subjects treated of in the Eighth Chapter are Greek, Etruscan, Gauhsh, and
British Vases, with an alphabetical list of the Vases of the classical era. This is fol-
lowed by dissertations on Gems, Rings, Seals, &c.
" The Ninth Chapter contains, in alphabetical arrangement, ample descriptions of
Furniture, Utensils, and Mechanicals.
" The Tenth Chapter embraces Manufactures, Trades, Inventions, Useful Arts,
Ornaments, Avocations, Offices, etc.
" The Eleventh Chapter describes Barrows, Camps, Earthquakes, Roads, rude
Stone-works, &c. &c.
" The Twelfth Chapter treats of the Manners and Customs of Private Life among
the Laity of all nations. This Chapter contains a vast quantity of curious matter
connected with our National Antiquities.
" But the Thirteenth Chapter will perhaps be found productive of more amusement
to the general reader than any other portion of the Work. It embraces Festivals at
particular Seasons, arranged under each month ; Theatricals, Jugglers, Tumblers,
Rope Dancers ; Games of Skill and Chance ; Gymnastics ; Field Sports ; Rustic
Sports ; Children's Sports ; Dancing ; and Musicals.
" Distinctions of rank and honour, and heraldic matters, as arms, badges, cogni-
zances, &c. form the subject of the Fourteenth Chapter.
" In the Fifteenth Chapter the Author notices Druidical and other Heathen Super-
stitions ; including lucky and unlucky days, &c. Also, obsolete ecclesiastical matters,
with accounts of hierarchal oflScers, now obsolete : — Anchorets, Hermits, Monks, Nuns,
Pilgrims, Continentes, &c. On these subjects, it is evident that the Author is quite
au fait, as might indeed have been inferred from the popularity of his well-known and
much-approved work on " British Monachism." Liturgical Matters and Solemnities ;
and Fasts, Festivals, and certain peculiar religious Rites, conclude this Chapter,
" In the Sixteenth Chapter, treating of Military Antiquities, Mr. Fosbroke strongly
recommends, by his ample quotations, ' Sir S. Meyrick's superb and learned work on
Armour.'
" Inthe Seventeenth Chapter are classed, in separate alphabetical lists, accounts, as
connected with Archseology, of Quadrupeds, Birds, Reptiles, Fish, Insects, Vegeta-
bles, and Marbles.
" The Eighteenth Chapter appears to have been compiled with great care. It treats
of Arms and Armour of all periods. Every page of it bears ample proof of the im-
portance of Sir S. Meyrick's labours on those subjects.
" The Nineteenth Chapter comprehends subjects similar to the preceding — Military
Engines, Projectile Machines, and Fire Arms, here pass in review.
" The Twentieth Chapter embraces the Costumes of all nations, commencing with
the Egyptian, Asiatic, Grecian, and Roman, and descending to the Anglo-Saxon,
Danish, Norman, and English, as late as the end of the 17th century. Some general
Remarks for ascertaining the Eras of Figures in the Middle Ages are concise and useful.
These are foUowed by descriptions of various articles of dress, alphabetically arranged.
" The Twenty-first Chapter enters on the subject of Numismatics.
" Such is a brief outline of the contents of this elaborate undertaking. But the
whole Work should be considered as a grand panorama, and not a coUection of land-
scapes or details. We again congratulate the learned Author on thus fulfilling his
engagements with his Subscribers by presenting to them and to the Public in general
a highly useful and standard Work on the subjects which have never before been so
fiuccessfully embodied."
